Primary Care Services
Nurse Practitioner
Nurse Practitioners are Registered Nurses with additional education and nursing experience. Primary health care NPs generally work in community settings and provide primary health care services to people of all ages. They work collaboratively with other health care providers to provide quality care for patients. Nurse Practitioners are able to provide individuals with health services in health promotion, preventative care screening, and chronic disease management.
Appointments with the Nurse Practitioner are booked one week at a time. Each Monday morning we start scheduling appointments for the current week. This means that you can be seen for your health care needs as you require them.
Appointments: (807) 223-7406

Sam Sawh (Myers)
Nurse Practitioner
Sam graduated with a Nurse Practitioner Certificate and Master of Public Health from Lakehead University in 2025. She previously earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Psychology from Trent University in 2015, followed by a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Toronto in 2018.
After becoming a Registered Nurse, Sam began her career in a busy Emergency Department in the Greater Toronto Area. In 2019, she relocated to Dryden, where she quickly fell in love with the community. Since then, she has worked in multiple departments at the Dryden Regional Health Centre and gained experience in nursing education, remote outpost nursing, and public health.
Sam is excited to continue supporting local residents by providing comprehensive, holistic primary care in her expanded role as a Nurse Practitioner with the Dryden Family Health Team. Outside of work, she enjoys hiking with her dogs and volunteering with the local fire department.
