At Serenity Women’s Care, you’re never just another patient in a crowded room waiting to be seen. In fact, you are never just another patient at all. We treat you as the unique individual you are the moment you join our family and beyond.”
What’s important to patients is important to JeanAnn and all of us at Serenity Women’s Care. We accommodate same-day appointments for added patient convenience whenever possible, and we spend as much time during appointments as necessary without making the patient feel rushed. Patients determine the direction of and have a voice in their care under the guidance of JeanAnn and our compassionate team.

What is a Nurse Practitioner, and Why Should I See One?
A Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly educated health care provider who approaches health and illness, care and cure, from the unique perspective of the nursing profession. While an NP is a Registered Nurse (RN), her/his education far surpasses the level required for RN licensure.
Our JeanAnn Schwark, M.S., F.N.P.-C., is a Nurse Practitioner. She completed a master’s degree in nursing as well as a post-graduate certification, both in Arizona.
To practice as an NP, the most advanced level of nursing, a nurse must:
- Have a Doctorate or a master’s degree in nursing
- Complete an educational program in a clinical specialty
- Successfully pass a national certification exam in that specialty
- NPs are required to continue their educations and recertify periodically to maintain a high level of excellence.
In practical terms, an NP may work very much like an MD. She will conduct a history and physical exam on a patient, order and interpret appropriate diagnostic tests, develop a treatment plan, prescribe necessary medications, perform needed procedures, and conduct ongoing follow-up and treatment management with the patient.
Advancement in Medical Science and Technology
Medical science and technology are advancing in ways that are difficult to comprehend. Physicians are moving into ever more complex, specialized roles, practicing at their very highest levels. In this rapidly changing environment, Nurse Practitioners are emerging as the healthcare providers of choice for many patients, meeting the needs for primary care and specialty care.
