About

Betty Tom, MN, FNP-C
Primary Care Nurse Practitioner

Hi, I’m Betty — a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (AANP) and the voice behind The Buzz with NP B.

I’ve built my career at the intersection of primary care, mental health, and addiction medicine, and I’m licensed to practice across Ontario, Newfoundland and Labrador, Florida and New York State. That cross-border, cross-province perspective shapes everything I write here: practical, evidence-based guidance on mental health and recovery, delivered without judgment and without jargon.

Clinically trained, personally invested. I show up here the same way I show up in the exam room — direct, warm, and genuinely on your side.

Thanks for stopping by. If something here resonates, I’d love for you to stay a while.

Ready to connect? I provide virtual care to adolescents and adults in Ontario and Newfoundland and Labrador. If you would like to discuss services, please complete the secure contact form with a brief description of your needs, or email me at betty@essenzahealthplus.com. I personally review all messages and typically reply within one business day.
