Get to know the provider: Phebena Rency, CRNP

“Primary care access and utilization is the cornerstone of the U.S. health care system, providing a crucial first point of contact for individuals seeking medical attention,” says Phebena Rency, CRNP, Trinity Health Mid-Atlantic family medicine provider. “It plays it pivotal role in disease prevention, early detection and management of chronic conditions.”

Rency was first inspired to pursue a career in family medicine upon learning about the increasing demand for primary care providers and wanting to provide compassionate care for people of all ages. Her patients are comforted by her holistic approach, focusing on treating the immediate condition but also addressing the root cause of their health issues.

“One important piece of advice I often remind my patients is that prevention is better than a cure,” Rency says. “I always encourage my patients to follow a healthy lifestyle with disease prevention as the primary goal.”
