My bio
Hi, my name is Erica Estess, and my pronouns are she/her. I am a certified nurse midwife and nurse practitioner with over 10 years of experience in sexual health and gynecology. I am a former Gator with a bachelor’s in anthropology and a bachelor’s in nursing, both from the University of Florida, respectively. I worked as a registered nurse on the postpartum and gynecology surgery units at Shands for three years before obtaining my master’s degree in nursing at Vanderbilt University in 2014. I then spent seven years in St. Petersburg, Florida, delivering babies and practicing full-scope gynecology at Women’s Care Florida.
I am thrilled to be back in Gainesville and taking care of UF students as a part of my work. I am a passionate patient advocate with a drive for educating and empowering patients about their bodies and choices.
