Her StoryAbout Shae
"My patients aren't appointments on a schedule — they are people with stories, fears, hopes, and families who need them. That's who I show up for every single day."
Shae Hinton is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner whose career is built on a rare blend of clinical excellence and genuine, heartfelt compassion. Born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee, she began her nursing journey in 2002 and has spent more than two decades building deep, trusting relationships with the patients who depend on her. She is the practitioner you call when something is wrong — and the one who actually calls you back.
With her BSN and MSN both earned from King University and national board certification through the AANP, Shae brings a sophisticated clinical toolkit to every visit — from complex chronic disease management to individualized preventative care strategies tailored to each patient's unique life.
What sets Shae apart is simple: she treats the whole person. She asks about your family, your stress, your sleep, and your goals — because she knows that lasting health doesn't come from prescriptions alone. It comes from partnership. Patients consistently describe her as the provider who finally made them feel heard, valued, and genuinely cared for.
Outside the clinic, she's a passionate Tennessee Volunteers fan, a lover of basketball, a traveler, and a devoted family member — the same warmth and loyalty she brings to every patient relationship.
