Your Medical Provider
Jurg W. J. Oggenfuss, APRN, FNP-BC, ANP-BC
My name is Jurg (pronounced “Yerg”). I’m a graduate of Marquette University at Milwaukee, WI. I received additional training in HIV care early in my career and have been focused on working with people living with HIV ever since. I have been in practice for 14 years and want to continue to care for my community by providing a safe and welcoming environment.
About
Affirmative Health and Wellness is a small, independent primary care medical practice located in Plainville, CT. It's just me. I do everything from answering the phone to getting your vitals and developing a treatment plan with you. You as the patient are in the driver's seat. I'm here to help you navigate. I've spent many years working in busy clinics where patients wait for hours to see their medical provider, only to be rushed through their appointment without getting to discuss issues that matter the most. Frustrating isn't it? It is for the provider too. I like to take time with my patients so that we can address all of your health concerns.
