THE PRACTICE

Family Medicine in Falls Church, PC

Family Medicine in Falls Church is the practice of Dr. Arminda Nasuti and NP Genevieve. Both Providers are certified in Family Medicine. Training includes pediatric and adult medicine, minor surgeries, public health issues, and mental health. Thus, our specialty embraces all ages, sexes, races, and medical issues. We utilize our specialist partners, when needed, to assist us in the care of our patients or for procedures that can not be accomplished in our office.

Our office is set up to be "paperless." We utilize a medical management program known as e-MDs. The program, which features an electronic medical record allows us to document your visit quickly and accurately, track needed or recommended tests and procedures, and manage your health more effectively and efficiently. Billing is accomplished electronically in most cases with the system.

As an established patient, when you contact our office, you should be able to get an appointment on the same or next day for most acute issues. New patients should call to inquire about appointment availability. Physicals and chronic problem follow-up appointments are generally scheduled in advance but often can be scheduled on the same day. For new patients, we prefer to complete physicals after an initial get-to-know office visit. This initial visit will allow the doctors to review health history and address acute concerns.

OUR PROVIDERS

PCMH Provider

Arminda Nasuti, MD

I joined Family Medicine in Falls Church in 2017 after our family moved from Sauk City, Wisconsin where I was a practicing family doctor for five years. I graduated from Wake Forest University School of Medicine in 2007. At Wake Forest, I was elected to the Gold Humanism Honor Society for exemplary service to others, clinical excellence, integrity, and compassionate and respectful relationships with patients, families, and colleagues. I was also the recipient of the Robert P. Vidinghoff Memorial award. I completed my residency at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health in Madison, WI. I also have a Masters of Science from The College of William & Mary Virginia Institute of Marine Science, and a Bachelors Degree in English and Biology from Williams College in Massachusetts.

In addition to my studies, I also worked as a Congressional Fellow with the U.S. House of Representatives for the Subcommittee on Fisheries, Oceans, and Wildlife. My husband Peter and my daughter Claire live in North Arlington, but we love visiting the City of Falls Church's library, farmer's market and other community attractions.

I have been a Registered Nurse since 2006 after graduating with my BSN from George Mason University. I started my nursing career at Inova Fairfax Hospital before moving to attend graduate school at the University Of San Diego. I am dual-certified as a Family and Geriatric Nurse Practitioner through AANP since 2012, and this is when I returned home to Northern Virginia . I am also a Certified Wound Specialist through the American Board of Wound Management and was specialized in Advanced and Chronic Wound Care for 7 years prior to joining Family Medicine in Falls Church in June 2023. I have enjoyed being a part of this special family here at work, and the surrounding community!
