Rachel Tull Brown found her passion for heart health after losing family members prematurely to cardiovascular disease.  Rachel completed specialty cardiology training at Duke University while achieving her nurse practitioner degree. 

Rachel enjoys working in partnership with her patients. She knows that there are many ways to help them live long, fulfilling lives with the right screening and intervention.  Rachel empowers her patients by providing individualized education and using shared decision making to help them navigate the complexities of living with cardiovascular disease.  

Rachel was raised in Portland and is happy to be back in the area and close to family, the ocean, and the mountains. When not working, Rachel enjoys spending time with her husband and young children doing outside activities, gardening, and taking care of animals on their small hobby farm.
