About Darlene Purvis
You are appreciated and I encourage healthy lifestyles for your best health physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.
In December of 1995 I graduated from University of South Alabama as an Adult Acute Nurse Practitioner (NP), I completed two certifications, Primary care and Adult Acute care. I was the first Acute Care NP in the State of Mississippi and first NP to be given privileges at Memorial Hospital in Gulfport.
As a NP, my first job was in the Emergency room at Memorial Hospital and in 1997 I started in Cardiology with Dr. Sangani. for 17 years. In 2014, I started the “vip clinic” for primary care, the name changed to “The primary care Plus”. In January of 2022 we became part of Singing River Health System (SRHS). In September, I will start my 27th year as a NP and will be working as Primary care / Internal Med. Nurse Provider with Memorial Health Systems on Community road.
My passion to help others is my motivation. I have never considered being a nurse or a NP as a job but a passion and a gift from God. I have always reassured patients that if there is something I cannot help you with or improve; I will find someone that can assist.
