Meet Donna Marie Scippa, NP

I have been a Nurse Practitioner in women's health for over 35 years and it has been a privilege and a gift to care for women of all ages. I started my journey as an RN at the University of Chicago. After moving to California and becoming an NP, I worked in a variety of settings, including SF State, the UCSF Bone Density Clinic, Planned Parenthood, and private practice. Simultaneously, I became very interested in integrative health and wellness. From receiving my massage therapy license to working as an integrative nutritional and weight loss counselor, I have continuously expanded the depth and breadth of my knowledge around how to best support women holistically. 

Currently, I specialize in all aspects of gynecologic care for women from adolescence through post-menopause, including: annual exams and (pain free!) pap smears; testing for and treating vaginal infections; thorough breast exams, breast health education, and instruction on how to perform self-breast exams; consultation around supplementation and bio-identical hormone replacement therapy; and consultation around safe and consensual sex practices and birth control options.
