Provider Bio

A Journey from EMT to FNP — Driven by Purpose

Lora Betron Campos, FNP-BC has been a registered nurse since 2015, and a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner since February 2022. But her journey in healthcare began much earlier — as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-B) in 2007.

In 2008, she joined the Army National Guard, where she deepened her commitment to service and resilience. Before healthcare, she earned a Bachelor's degree in Deaf Studies and worked as a substitute teacher in Los Angeles Unified School District, supporting both general and special education classrooms.

Her decision to pursue nursing came from a deep desire to serve others while channeling her passion for healthier living. She recognized that communities could be fundamentally transformed if obesity and depression were addressed at their roots — not just managed symptomatically.

This conviction was forged through personal experience. After going through a divorce, Lora turned to marathon running and triathlons as a way to avoid isolation. The unexpected result: she lost over 30 pounds and found significant relief from depression. Movement, community, and purpose became her medicine.

As part of a 7 day challenge in 2024, she published an e-book that reflects her values and beliefs in mindfulness. You can access the following link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D1GWFFCV where readers can explore her insights and practical exercises to enhance their daily lives.

Today, Lora works as a nurse practitioner contractor with the County of Contra Costa Healthcare while building Connect2-wellness — a practice designed to make sustainable, integrative healthcare accessible via telehealth to patients throughout California.
