Baxter Health has announced the addition of Kirsten Cotter, APRN, to its Gastroenterology Clinic in Mountain Home. Cotter, a veteran nurse with over two decades of experience, began her new role as a nurse practitioner this week.

Cotter has been an essential part of Baxter Health since 2001, serving as both a registered nurse and charge nurse within the healthcare system. Her transition to the Gastroenterology Clinic marks a new chapter in a career dedicated to supporting patients in North Central Arkansas.

A graduate of Missouri State University, Cotter’s advanced training as an APRN enables her to provide expanded care to the clinic’s patients. She officially started seeing patients in her new role on Tuesday, further enhancing the gastroenterology team’s capacity to serve the community.

Baxter Health’s Gastroenterology Clinic offers specialized services for diagnosing and treating digestive system conditions, and Cotter's addition strengthens its commitment to high-quality patient care.
