About Kendra Amarante

Kendra earned her Master of Science in Nursing, Family Nurse Practitioner, from the New England Institute of Technology in East Greenwich, Rhode Island. 

Kendra found her inspiration to become a nurse practitioner right here at Southcoast Health’s St. Luke’s hospital, where she had the opportunity to intern during her high school career. 

Her personal philosophy of care is valuing individuality and providing care for patients that is specific to their needs and aligns with their health goals and expectations. She seeks to develop long term relationships with patients and provide care that aligns with the nursing model of care. Kendra believes that health care is more than just focusing on a specific diagnosis and treatment and that learning about their interests, hobbies, and about other aspects of their life is key to her practicing medicine. 

When not at work, she enjoys spending time with her boys, family, and dogs. She also enjoys being active and spending time at the beach. 

She is fluent in Portuguese.

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings.  Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and  Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office.  The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
