Angelea Letbetter, MSN, APRN, CPNP-AC

Personal Statement

I am a board-certified pediatric nurse practitioner specializing in acute care. I have a passion for pediatric cardiology and congenital heart disease. One of my favorite patient populations to work with is children with single ventricle anatomy and newborns who need surgery in their first days and weeks of life. My philosophy of care is to maintain transparency and integrity by offering the most accurate information to patients and families to facilitate understanding and allow their input in decision-making, all while maintaining high-level collaboration with the interdisciplinary team to achieve the best outcomes. As a congenital heart surgery advanced practice provider, I am privileged to be in the position to provide a sense of continuity for our pre-operative and post-operative heart surgery patients and families.
