About Tringo Dessie
About the Provider
I’ve always been drawn to helping people during their most vulnerable moments. Watching my older sister travel to rural areas and help people made a lasting impression on me, and influenced my decision to become a nurse practitioner.
My care approach is centered around building strong relationships. I listen carefully to my patients’ concerns, take time to explain their treatment options and why they are important, and help them feel empowered to take control of their health. I want you to feel informed, involved, and comfortable with your care plan.
I’m especially passionate about helping people with chronic diseases and conditions improve their quality of life. These are patients I get to work with on an ongoing basis, and it’s always deeply rewarding to be part of their journey and see the difference we can make together over time.

Shorter wait time. More empathy. Stop weighing people in open area. Where others can view you and your weight. Maybe turn scale away from patient traffic
