About April Pearson Towler, FNP

April earned both a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Master of Science in Nursing from the Medical College of Georgia, completing her studies in 2008. She is board-certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Board.

A family history of heart disease and the loss of a close family member at a young age impacted April’s decision to pursue a medical career in cardiology. She is particularly encouraged by daily advancements in the field and finds it gratifying to see patients flourish after cardiac complications that were untreatable just a few short years ago.

An experienced Nurse Practitioner, April learned long ago that it is better to listen twice as much as she speaks, and she strives to practice that with her patients, especially on their first visit. April’s areas of expertise include coronary artery disease, women’s heart disease and heart failure.

Originally from rural south Georgia, April moved from Athens, Georgia to Williamsburg with her husband, two daughters and their Springer Spaniel. She loves our area’s proximity to the beach, mountains and history. In her free time, April enjoys travel, fitness, and watching the Georgia Bulldogs play football.

[...]April was a good assignment. She had obviously had read the charts & file and was able to bring professional focused conversation into the appointment. My perspective on certain aspect of health management is simple: Deal with it, prevent it, & know what's happening. I feared I was wasting her time but she handled it well.

The visit was excellent, and everything was explained to me. April told me she thought it was a good idea to put a heart monitor on me, because of my history with afib. She asked if I was ok with that, and I said yes.

I actually prefer April over the doctor. She's very knowledgeable and explains everything thoroughly. Great "bedside" manner.

April was very concerned about my Afib. Did an EKG and put me on a heart monitor for weeks.
