What is the difference between a physician and a nurse practitioner?

A nurse practitioner is a Registered Nurse who has taken substantial additional training in order to receive the designation of ARNP–Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner. Nurse Practitioners can do everything that physicians do (including writing prescriptions), except for deliveries and surgeries. If the nurse practitioner feels that surgery is necessary, the patient will be referred to our physician.
