Provider: Leigh Barberet, APRN, FNP-BC

What is your patient care philosophy

My patient care philosophy is to treat everyone as family.

How does your work improve lives?

My work improves lives by taking a holistic approach in my practice, focusing on the prevention of illness and promoting health. I also advocate in helping connect our patients to resources in the community.

What would you like people to know about you as a physician/provider?

I came to Central Florida Health Care in 2001 and helped open the Dundee Clinic as a part of the National Health Service Corps and have been there ever since. The NHSC helps place trained clinicians in underserved communities that have a shortage of health care providers.

What else would you like to share about yourself?

In my spare time, I enjoy working in my garden, exercising, going to the beach and hanging out with family. My favorite quote is, “From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life.”~ Arthur Ashe
