Clare Kiraly, APN, FNP-C, is a member of Summit Health’s Orthopedics team. From a young age, Clare was inspired by the healthcare professionals who dedicated their lives to helping others. This led her to a career in healthcare where she now specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of musculoskeletal conditions.

Clare believes that every patient is unique and deserves compassionate, holistic, and evidence-based care. She works hard to build trust with her patients and encourages them to take an active role in their health. "My goal is to understand their concerns, needs, and goals during our time together," she says.

What Clare enjoys most about her job is the chance to make a meaningful difference in people's lives. "Every day brings a unique chance to connect with patients, provide compassionate care, and empower them to achieve better health outcomes," she shares. She loves the challenge of diagnosing conditions, developing tailored treatment plans, and finding creative solutions to improve their quality of life.

When she's not treating patients, Clare has a deep appreciation for the arts. As a former ballerina, she enjoys attending ballets and Broadway shows. She also likes to challenge her mind with the New York Times crossword and Wordle. She's also passionate about Unidad Hospitalaria Movil Latinoamerica or Latin America Mobile Hospital Unit (“UHMLA”), a nonprofit organization that provides medical aid throughout Latin America.
