About The Provider
A Bakersfield native, Nicole Lynch is a board-certified family nurse practitioner passionate about providing cardiothoracic care in her community.
Lynch’s desire to help people inspired her to pursue a career in healthcare more than 13 years ago. She has spent the last decade at Adventist Health Bakersfield, her hometown hospital, where she has served as a surgical technologist, ICU nurse, and cardiovascular circulating nurse in the operating room.
Certified by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners, Lynch now offers inpatient and outpatient cardiothoracic care.
Her own personal experiences in healthcare have informed her care philosophy and patient advocacy.
When not caring for patients, Lynch stays busy at home making memories with her two dogs, husband, son, and twins - a boy and a girl!
