About Zulay

Meet Zulay Zayas, MSN, ARNP

Nurse Practitioner

My name is Zulay Zayas and I began my college education and further studies in 1995 when I attended Robert Morgan Vocational Institute. At that time in the Clinical Site of Mercy Hospital in Miami Florida. Three years later in 1998 I obtained my Associates in Science, as a registered nurse in Miami Dade College. I transferred Clinical Sites to Jackson Memorial Hospital. From 2000-2005 I was a student in Florida International University. Received my Bachelors of Science in Nursing as well as my Masters of Science in Nursing, MSN, ARNP.

During these years I was DR. Kathi H. Andersons research assistant. Working in Deborah Coningsby, ARNP-C, and Miami Cardiac and Vascular institutes clinical sites.
After years of education I moved on to the work experience. I began in the Baptist Health System in September of 1996 as a Licensed Practical Nurse. Three years after, in January 1999 I remained working in the same company but with different duties.

As a Registered Nurse I took patient care for a telemetry and cardiovascular step-down unit .In addition, I became a preceptor and mentor for students and new graduate nurses on telemetry units. As well as a Charge Nurse for a 51 bed unit. After five years of working at Baptist Health System, my new journey began in Miami Vein Center in November 2004. In this company I was responsible for new patient medical histories and physicals, as well as responsible for patients pre-op and post-op follow-ups. I treated the patients which needed sclerotherapy and transcutaneous laser treatments for spider veins. Not to forget I worked with laser hair removal as well.

Four years after the experience in Miami Vein Center and many more years after my first job, I began to work in Collier Urgent Care as an Advanced registered nurse practitioner, MSN. I remain being the one responsible for patients pre-op and post-up follow-ups. I continue to treat patients who need sclerotherapy and transcutaneous laser treatments for spider veins. I have been working at the Collier Urgent Care since 2008 and remain being an employee now in 2019
