SANCAP CHAMBER
\nCoastal Healthcare is open for business on Palm Ridge Road on Sanibel.<\/p>\n
Coastal Healthcare officially opened on Feb. 12 with a SanCap Chamber ribbon-cutting on Sanibel.<\/p>\n
Founder and nurse practitioner Kirsten Lamb brings added convenience to island medical offerings with flexible scheduling, telehealth availability, health optimization, weight management, IV hydration, and personalized whole-person care.<\/p>\n
\u201cOffering both direct primary care and urgent care in one place is huge for the islands,\u201d chamber President and Chief Executive Officer John Lai said. \u201cAs we restore the health of Sanibel and Captiva, we welcome Kirsten and her impressive background in improving and ensuring the physical health of our residents and visitors with custom care and walk-in accessibility.\u201d<\/p>\n
With a master\u2019s degree in nursing from West Virginia University, Lamb completes her doctorate in nursing practice in May at Florida Gulf Coast University in Fort Myers. She has served as a nurse practitioner since 2015 and has experience in general surgery, primary care and wound care. Lamb is also familiar with the community.<\/p>\n
\u201cSanibel has been special to me since childhood,\u201d she said. \u201cI vacationed here as a child, and my parents retired here. I love the small-town feel, nature, and sense of community, and I\u2019m inspired by Sanibel\u2019s resiliency and growth, especially following Hurricane Ian. I\u2019m grateful for the warm welcome and support from the community and the chamber.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamb\u2019s approach to medical care concentrates on proactive wellness options, she said. Visits can be designed to be more thorough and supportive than a typical urgent-care experience.<\/p>\n
Coastal Healthcare is at 2330 Palm Ridge Road, Sanibel.<\/p>\n
