Summer is here! As the school year wraps up and we all start settling into a new season, it’s a great time to pause, recharge, and catch up on a few updates.

In this edition of our newsletter, you’ll find some quick reads and helpful tips to carry you through the summer months—both in and out of the clinic. Whether you’re heading out on vacation or just enjoying longer days and warmer weather, we hope you find something useful (and maybe even inspiring) in the articles below.

We’re also proud to share that our Nurse Practitioner, Emily Masi, has recently completed a second board certification through the post-master’s program at Hawaii Pacific University. In addition to her training in family medicine, she has now completed over 650 hours of residency in psychiatry and is officially licensed as both a Family Nurse Practitioner and a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

This dual certification allows her to provide both comprehensive primary care and specialized psychiatric care—all within the comfort and continuity of our practice. We know that finding mental health support can often be time-consuming, costly, and stressful. With this expanded expertise, we’re able to offer timely, integrated psychiatric services to our existing patients, right here at PVMG.

Wishing you a healthy and relaxing start to summer!
