Personal
Denise joined PCC in 2012 as a Nurse Practitioner. In late 2019 she moved to Las Vegas to be closer to her family but has now rejoined the practice- primarly providing telehealth visits, and working on-site as needed.
She is married to her husband Scott, and between them they have 1 dog- Daisy, 4 adult children and 10 grandchildren. They both enjoy riding their motorcyles on long journeys. Denise is very excited to be returning to PCC and the Central Coast while still maintaining her primary residence in Las Vegas.
