About Ciara Mottier

Pronunciation: KEE-ra MOH-tee-ayI am a family nurse practitioner who is passionate about equitable access to high-quality health care. I work in a federally qualified health center, providing full spectrum primary care and reproductive health care to underserved patient populations in New York City, regardless of their ability to pay. I work with patients of all ages, from prenatal and pediatric age, all the way through older adulthood. I have special interests in gender affirming care and OBGYN care. My goal is to combine my public health and quality improvement skills with my clinical knowledge to provide high value care to all members of the community.
