Ann Hinckley, MSN-FNP-BC

Ann is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner, graduating from American International College in 2018.  After receiving a bachelor’s degree in Sociology & Anthropology from Fairfield University, she pursued her passion for healthcare by attending nursing school at Holyoke Community College where she graduated Summa Cum Laude.  Ann began her career as a dialysis nurse and quickly transitioned to the role of the charge nurse at a large dialysis facility in the area. Working closely with the medical staff, she realized how an advanced degree would expand her ability to care for patients.  She returned to school once again to become an advanced care provider and is excited to continue her career in her nephrology roots.

Ann is married and has three children.  She enjoys reading, travel and cooking.
