South County Medical Group Primary Care staff includes expert, compassionate Advanced Practice Providers (APP) in Family Medicine and Internal Medicine. An APP is a health care professional who undergoes specialized education, training, and certification to provide services like medical diagnosis and treatment. They include physician assistants (PAs), nurse practitioners (NPs), certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), and certified nurse midwives (CNMs).

They experience rigorous national certification, periodic peer review, and clinical outcome evaluations and adhere to a code for ethical practices.

Nurse practitioners are the choice for millions of primary care patients. They handle routine care for those with various medical conditions, diagnose illnesses, order exams for patients, and interpret the findings of exams. They also prescribe certain medications.

When necessary, nurse practitioners coordinate care with other medical and behavioral health specialists to make certain you get the best treatment options for your condition and lifestyle.

"Erica Ogni surpasses any previous provider I've had. She goes beyond the call of duty, taking the time to genuinely connect with you. Her exceptional traits distinguish her from any other doctor I've encountered in my 47 years. I was so impressed that I followed her from one practice to her current one, and I'd do it again if she were to relocate. Your practice is privileged to have such a smart, caring, conscientious, selfless, and passionate individual on board."
