Courtney Duggan

Courtney Duggan believes being an educator is a unique privilege and is honored to do so in such a rich and rewarding environment. Regis University is a place that calls us all to do more (Magis), to live the mission in our daily lives and to constantly be men and women for and with others. In her daily teaching, she aims to serve students by helping them find their individual paths and giving them tools to succeed. She believes in supporting students but holding them to a high standard. Duggan promotes high quality clinical practice through challenging students in innovative ways in and out of the classroom, so they can feel safe in their learning environment but also so they will be well-equipped to provide care for their patients when they graduate.

Her research focus and DNP project have been working with patients who have obesity. She is currently involved in a Primary Care Obesity certificate program and it is her passion to continue to find new ways to support patients who struggle with making lifestyle changes. She continues to practice in a Primary Care FNP position where she precepts FNP students. Duggan is a board-certified nurse coach and certified Family Nurse Practitioner.
