Lori S Kortkamp, NP

Lori Susann Kortkamp, FNP-C was first exposed to the issue of chronic illness through her family. “I am a natural caregiver,” she says. “I have family members who are dealing with chronic illness. In addition, my stepfather was a pharmacist and my great aunt was a school nurse.” Lori earned both her Master of Science degree and Post-Graduate Family Nurse Practitioner certificate from Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona.

“I care deeply about what I do, and I'm dedicated to helping people improve their health or adapt to changes in their health status."

Lori says she gets the most professional satisfaction when “Having may patients come back and tell me how much better they feel.” A Southern California native, Lori also lived in Oregon and Washington before resettling in California. She adds, “I am able to hold a simple conversation in Spanish, and I'm still improving my skill with that language.”

Outside of the office, Lori enjoys watching Formula 1 racing, crafting and travel with her husband.
