About Elizabeth Wainscott, NP
Elizabeth Wainscott is a board-certified nurse practitioner with over 11 years of experience providing compassionate, patient-centered care. She specializes in both family practice and adult-gerontology acute care, bringing a well-rounded perspective to treating patients across their lifespan. She earned her nursing education from St. Petersburg College and the University of South Alabama. She further strengthened her clinical training through her internship and residency at University of Florida Health Shands Hospital, where she developed a strong foundation in acute and comprehensive care.
Driven by a genuine desire to help others, Elizabeth views healthcare as both a calling and a privilege. She believes that caring for others adds deeper meaning to life and strives to create a supportive environment where patients feel valued, respected, and empowered. Her approach to care is rooted in a simple but powerful philosophy: treat others the way you would want to be treated. She encourages her patients to stay curious, continue learning about their health, and take an active role in their own healing journey.
Outside of work, Elizabeth enjoys a vibrant and creative lifestyle. She spends her time cultivating a homestead filled with fruits, vegetables, and animals, and she loves cooking farm-to-table meals and baking sourdough bread. Musically inclined, she plays the five-string electric bass, and she also enjoys singing and dancing. In quieter moments, she can be found reading or writing poetry and science fiction, watching sci-fi and comedy films, or enjoying a friendly game of Scrabble or chess, often starting her day with a strong cup of coffee and a Wordle puzzle.
