Biography
Lisa Wanner, FNP-C, has worked at North Mississippi Medical Center-Hamilton since 2002. She graduated summa cum laude from the University of North Alabama in 2015 with a bachelor’s degree in nursing. She received her master’s degree in nursing in 2017 from Troy University. She is certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support and Pediatric Advanced Life Support.
Wanner’s grandmother, who worked as a certified nursing assistant, inspired her interest in health care. “Just observing the satisfaction she felt in helping others influenced me to want to make a difference,” she said.
She says she wanted to work close to home and take care of people in her community. “I have had the opportunity to serve in my small community hospital while enjoying the affiliation of a larger system for specialty referrals and services,” she says.
Her hobbies include traveling, antique shopping and spending time with her family.
