Megan McBride, FNP-C

I’m Megan McBride, FNP-C, and I joined Phelps Health as a board-certified family nurse practitioner in January 2024. I see patients of all ages, and my collaborating physician is Phelps Health Family Medicine Physician Rachelle Gorrell, DO.

From a young age, I’ve wanted to help people. As a senior in high school, my dad was in a hunting accident and spent 6 long weeks in the hospital. Thankfully, he came through OK, but I vividly remember the nurses and the physical and occupational therapists having a big impact on me. Not only did they take care of my dad, but they attended to our entire family.

After 5 years of nursing – 2 years in a neuroscience intensive care unit (ICU) and 3 years in the Phelps Health ICU – I decided to further my education. I’m excited to build relationships with my patients as a family nurse practitioner.

As a provider, no problem is too big or too small. If it’s important to my patients, it’s important to me. I hope that my patients leave their visits feeling valued and respected.

I was born and raised, and still live in Rolla and am looking forward to continuing to work in the community. My husband and I are the proud parents of a son. I love sports and everything outdoors, including hunting and fishing.

For me, Phelps Health is home, and I want people to know that they can get great care close to home – you don’t have to travel.
