Gabriella Carballo, APRN

Gabriella Carballo, APRN, joins White-Wilson Medical Center Adult Medicine in Crestview with a decade of nursing experience and a deep commitment to whole-person primary care. Her path into healthcare began in 2016, when she earned her Licensed Practical Nurse credential through Mercy Hospital and began caring for patients in long-term care. She went on to complete Mercy’s Registered Nurse program before earning both her Bachelor of Science in Nursing and her Master of Science in Nursing from Chamberlain University in Chicago, Illinois.

Her decision to pursue advanced practice was a personal one. Having lost loved ones to unexpected illness at a young age, APRN Carballo understood early how much a compassionate, knowledgeable provider can mean to a patient and their family during a difficult time. That understanding became the foundation of her career. She wanted to be the person in the room who brings both clinical expertise and genuine care to people navigating their hardest moments.

APRN Carballo chose primary and family care because it allows her to look at the whole patient rather than a single symptom or diagnosis. She is drawn to identifying the root cause of a problem instead of treating only what appears on the surface, and she values the long-term relationships with her patients and serving as a consistent, trusted presence in their health journey.

Her approach to care is collaborative, holistic and rooted in education. She sees patients as partners in their own health, and she believes patients make the best decisions when they fully understand their options. Clear communication and shared decision-making are part of every visit. APRN Carballo is fluent in Spanish and cares for patients in both English and Spanish.

Originally from Miami, Florida, APRN Carballo now makes her home in the Florida Panhandle with her partner, whom she has known since high school, and their daughter. Outside the clinic, she enjoys spending time with her family, exercising, seeking out good food and spending as much time as she can on the water and in the outdoors.
