Patient Reviews
Mar 07, 2023
I recently moved to Encinitas and needed to find a new primary care provider. I'm a nurse practitioner myself and usually prefer going to family nurse practitioners. However, Scripps will not let you schedule with one for an initial visit (disappointed in Scripps for this). My husband and I ended up with an appointment with Erin Lester, and I'm definitely not going to switch because she was lovely. She is from the Midwest (where I'm from) and just has that "Midwest nice" vibe. She is also clearly smart and a great listener. Highly recommend if you need a doctor in Encinitas. Her team answers MyCharts quickly too (although one member of her team who was a different MD who responded via MyChart was a little snarky to my husband).

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
