Craig Hope, FNP-C

Born in Utah, I spent the first few years of my life in Idaho Falls before moving to Plano, TX where I was raised. After graduating high school, I attended BYU Idaho for a year. I chose a school in Idaho because my whole family was from Idaho. My grandparents both lived and worked on farms in Idaho Falls and Malta, Idaho. I spent many summers helping them work on these farms, moving sprinkler pipe, picking wild oats and helping with the harvest.

I met my lovely wife in 2001, we got married that year and began our journey together – raising our 4 beautiful children. We have found parenting to be one of the most rewarding and meaningful endeavors in life. Our kids continue to surprise us and make us so very proud every day!!!

From there, I attended school for my undergraduate at California State University, Chico where I Majored in Nursing, and then Minored in Exercise Science. In 2009, during my time at school, I began my career in healthcare as a Certified Nursing Assistant at a local physical rehab facility. I spent the next 10 years as a Registered Nurse in critical care areas – the majority as a Trauma Nurse in the Emergency Department.

In 2018, I enrolled at California State University, Sonoma where I earned my Master’s degree as a Family Nurse Practitioner.

Since then, I have spent time in Family Medicine where I have treated a large range of chronic diseases daily. I have also spent time working in an Urgent Care setting where I mainly treated acute illnesses and injuries, performed sports, DOT, and pre-employment physicals.
