Deborah Risa, NP-C

About

Debbie Risa is a certified nurse practitioner at Goshen Physicians Sleep & Allergy Medicine. She specializes in treating teenagers and adults with sleep disorders, allergies and asthma. Her advanced training includes screening and diagnostic testing for obstructive sleep apnea, insomnia and sleep related movement disorders.

Celebrating three generations of family fills Debbie’s life when she is away from patient care. She also loves to travel, particularly on mission trips with her church.

Debbie believes knowledge is power. She equips patients with information about their health and condition to help them actively participate in making decisions about their care.

A lifelong learner, Debbie expands her own understanding of chronic diseases as a participant in the Nurses’ Health Study II, sponsored by Harvard Medical School. The study has played an instrumental role in shaping public health recommendations for healthy aging in women.
