Kristel Dang, NP

Kristel Dang, NP, completed her nurse practitioner degree at Yale University, School of Nursing in New Haven, Connecticut. She was interested in pursuing a career in nursing after taking undergraduate courses in Women's Studies and Physiology. She later stumbled across Student Health, where she met her first Nurse Practitioner. Around the same time, she saw her mother struggle with her GYN providers and navigating through the healthcare system. Since then, Kristel knew she wanted to make a positive impact with women's health.

I am most satisfied when I can align with my patients' needs and they feel both heard and seen. Knowing that my patients would come back and see me again is a goal I strive to reach. The chance to get to help my patients achieve their personal health goals is a gift and I am grateful for it.

Kristel grew up locally in Southern California and can speak conversational Spanish. Outside of medicine, Kristel enjoys running and has ran three full marathons and several half marathons.
