Health care is a team-based approach where the patient, the provider, and other members of the health care team collaborate to achieve the best possible plan of care for each individual.
Catherine Espinosa, APRN, chose OSF HealthCare for its people-first philosophy and supportive environment. Excited about the Evergreen Park facility's comprehensive setup, she values the on-site amenities such as the pharmacy and lab, conveniently located next to the hospital.
During appointments, Catherine prioritizes patient involvement, ensuring they understand their care plan. Her passion for medicine stems from a love for problem-solving and human connections, leading her to specialize in family medicine, where she enjoys the diversity of patients.
Growing up in the southwestern Chicago suburbs, Catherine cherishes her close-knit family. Beyond medicine, she finds joy in travel, Pilates, and getting lost in a good book. She has traveled all over the world for both her career and personal trips, and often finds solace around a campfire in Wisconsin or Starved Rock for rejuvenation.
Notably, Catherine served in the United States Army Nurse Corps, undertaking several mobilizations to support the nation both domestically and internationally.
