About Carlyn G Pentzien

Carlyn Pentzien, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, WHNP-BC, has experience in a number of medical specialties, but her heart has always led her back to obstetrics and gynecology.

"I enjoy getting to know my patients and their life stories," she said.

With particular interests in women's health and hospital medicine, Pentzien lives out her passion of caring for OB/GYN patients daily at Methodist Physicians Clinic. She strives to provide each of them The Meaning of Care, which means "treating everyone as if they are your family member," she said.

Pentzien, who served in the U.S. Air Force and Nebraska National Guard, spends a lot of her free time outside. She enjoys being on the water, skiing, traveling and spending quality time with her spouse and two dogs.

    Dr.Pentzien was absolutely amazing. She was professional, caring, understanding and made sure that I knew absolutely everything that was going on the entire time. She also made sure I was aware of the risks of everything. She made me feel so comfortable I will not be seeing another provider for this service ever again. I will be recommending her to everyone I know. Thank you for the excellent care!

    This was actually a very eye opening experience for me. I have a long history of intense fear and anxiety around anything medical or pain inducing. I avoid being seen by a medical professional at all costs. I simply had no choice to make this appointment and I explained my anxiety while making the appointment and she was 100% understanding and tried to make me as comfortable as possible. She let me know what she was doing every step of the way and let me take a minute to breathe if I needed to. Although I didn't enjoy the actual procedure being done, I did really enjoy the provider and her ability to understand my anxiety. She really made me realize that not all medical related things/people are scary.
