April Greenway, MSN, APRN, FNP-C

April Greenway, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, is originally from Henderson, NC, earned her first bachelor’s degree in Spanish Language and Literature from North Carolina State University in Raleigh before pivoting to nursing later in life. While raising two children, April pursued her Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Winston Salem State University, launching her nursing career in the Orthopedic trauma operating room at WakeMed.

Her trajectory evolved into the CardioThoracic ICU at WakeMed, where she navigated the complexities of critical care. When cardiac surgeries were paused during the pandemic, she accepted an assignment in the COVID-19 ICU at Cape Fear Valley Hospital in Fayetteville, NC. This challenging period reinforced her belief in the power of lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, and holistic practices to prevent illness and enhance overall well-being.

Fueled by this experience, April completed her Master of Science in Nursing: Family Nurse Practitioner while also working in orthopedic trauma surgery on travel nurse assignments at Duke University and UNC Hospitals.

A member of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners and an orthopedic specialty group within the organization, she combines her clinical expertise with a keen interest in bone health, physical activity, and functional medicine to improve the quality of life for her patients.

Beyond her professional endeavors at OrthoNC, April finds joy in exploring local Farmer’s Markets, staying active with weightlifting and outdoor adventures, and nurturing her children’s curiosity through travel.
