About Elizabeth Gunckle, C.P.N.P.
I became a pediatric nurse practitioner due to its focus on pediatric medicine, patient education, and patient advocacy. Early in my career, I found passion in the intricate field of pediatric endocrinology. As most of the conditions I treat are chronic in nature, I enjoy building strong relationships with patients and their families throughout childhood and adolescence. I believe that keeping an open, honest line of communication is essential to provide the best care possible for my patients.
Ms. Gunckle received a Bachelor of Science in Cognitive Studies and Child Development at Vanderbilt University, graduating magna cum laude. She received a Master of Science in Nursing at Vanderbilt University, where she was inducted into Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing. Ms. Gunckle is board certified in pediatric primary care by the Pediatric Nursing Certification Board (PNCB). She continued her training at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center where she completed a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Fellowship, which involved intensive pediatric practice training in an urban, safety net setting and a PCMH model of primary care. Ms. Gunckle remained at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center where she served as the nurse practitioner in the pediatric endocrinology clinic and as the same-day sick provider in the pediatric outpatient clinic.
Ms. Gunckle's areas of interest include diabetes, growth disorders, thyroid disorders, and precocious puberty. She participates in Camp Freedom, a day camp for children with Type 1 Diabetes and provides inpatient teaching for new-onset type 1 diabetes patients.
