Dr. Rima Nitinchandra Vaidya

Rima Vaidya has had a passion for working in the medical field for as long as she can remember.  After graduating from high school Rima went on to college and received her Undergraduate degree from Chamberlin University in 2018 and then spent 3 more demanding years at Chamberlin University to get her master’s degree as an FNP (Family Nurse Practitioner).

“I love primary care, as I get to know my patients so much better than I did when I worked in the hospital setting,” says Rima with an abundance of enthusiasm. “I remember as a kid, I always wanted to be a nurse.  I loved learning about the anatomy of the body and enjoyed being around people.  Becoming a nurse was the perfect fit for me.”

Rima went on to explain that it’s a rewarding feeling working in primary care as I get to know patients better and see their progress from one visit to the next. The beauty of working in primary care comes from being able to foster a relationship with patients and provide more …personalized care. She went on to explain, “Making the shift from the ER hospital environment to Family Practice was a jump.  Coming to First Medical Care has been a joy.  The staff was very welcoming, and the environment is very pleasant.  I very much enjoy working with this team.”

Rima was born in India and grew up primarily in the United States.  To this day, she still speaks fluent Gujarati.  Rima’s hobbies include spending time with her family and friends, taking long hikes and loves eating different cuisines.
