HaysMed is proud to announce that Danielle VonFeldt, APRN, of HaysMed Urology, has successfully passed her certification Board for Urologic Nurses and Associates (CBUNA).

A native of Norton, Danielle began her journey with HaysMed in 2010 as a health unit coordinator (HUC). Her dedication to healthcare and professional growth led her to become a licensed practical nurse (LPN) in May 2012, followed by her transition to a registered nurse (RN) in 2014. Throughout her career, Danielle gained extensive experience in inpatient and clinic care, as well as the operating room.

Eager to advance her expertise, Danielle pursued higher education, earning her Master of Science in Nursing and Family Nurse Practitioner degree from Walden University in Minneapolis, MN, in July 2022.

With her recent certification, Danielle has achieved the distinction of being one of only two urology certified nurse practitioners in Kansas and one of just 230 nationwide—a testament to her commitment to excellence in her field.

Reflecting on her journey, Danielle shared, "I am incredibly grateful for the support and encouragement I’ve received from HaysMed throughout my career. Their commitment to fostering professional growth has been instrumental in helping me achieve this milestone. From my early days as a registered nurse to now becoming a certified urology nurse practitioner, HaysMed has always provided me with the resources and opportunities to advance my skills and deliver the best possible care to our patients. I’m excited to bring this specialized knowledge to our community and contribute to the exceptional work we do here at HaysMed."

Currently serving with HaysMed Western Kansas Urological Associates, Danielle delivers outstanding care across the region, contributing to advancements in urology and enhancing patient outcomes.

"Danielle’s certification showcases her passion and dedication to our patients," said Eddie Herrman, HaysMed CEO. "We are proud to have her on our HaysMed team and commend her commitment to advancing her education. Her expertise will make a meaningful impact on our community in western Kansas."

Danielle and her husband, Jared, both share a deep commitment to healthcare.

Originally from western Kansas, Jared began his career at HaysMed in 2015 as a phlebotomist, later becoming an RN in 2019. He is currently pursuing an advanced degree as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) at KU Medical Center, with graduation expected in 2027.

Together, they are raising two daughters and are proud to contribute to the health and well-being of their community.
