Episode 4: Should You Become a CRNA or an NP?

Welcome to another episode of The Nomadic Clinician! I’m your host, David Warren — a dual-certified Emergency Nurse Practitioner and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist. Today we’re diving into one of the most common questions in advanced practice nursing: should you become a CRNA or a Nurse Practitioner?

In this episode, I’ll compare the paths side-by-side — from education and training to lifestyle, compensation, autonomy, and the day-to-day realities of each role.

If you’re feeling torn between the two, or just curious about what life looks like on either side, this episode will help clarify your direction.

Subscribe and follow along as we explore the road to a fulfilling, flexible, and intentional healthcare career.
