Maria Young, NP
Reston
Nurse Practitioner, an advanced practice degree for primary care providers who complete master’s-level training and board certification and who practice medicine independently. Related degrees include ANP (Adult Nurse Practitioner), FNP (Family Nurse Practitioner), WHNP (Women's Health Nurse Practitioner), and APNP (Advance Practice Nurse Practitioner).
I plan to provide effective health promotion, disease prevention, and patient education to help patients achieve optimal health outcomes. I strive to deliver evidence-based, individualized, and high-quality care to help my patients get to their healthy state and be the best versions of themselves. I have a passion for building long-lasting relationships with patients, and partnering with them on their journey to wellness. My special interest is in chronic disease management, obesity medicine, and preventative care. I genuinely believe that although we all age, we should age healthy.
How I stay healthy and happy
Outside the office, I like exercising, reading mystery and thriller books, watching crime shows and documentaries, and spending time with my daughters, husband, and our dog. I am fortunate to be able to live, work and play here in beautiful Reston.
