Amanda Barson, FNP-BC

Amanda Barson is a dedicated Family Nurse Practitioner committed to delivering compassionate, patient-centered care. A Colorado native, Amanda completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, before earning her Master of Science in Nursing from Vanderbilt University. While at Vanderbilt, she received advanced training as a Family Nurse Practitioner and obtained her Registered Nurse license. Following her studies, she returned to Colorado to embark on her professional journey.

Amanda brings over two and a half years of experience in family medicine, where she developed a comprehensive clinical foundation caring for patients of all ages. Her career in healthcare began right here at Vanguard, where she worked for three years as a medical assistant. It was during this time that she discovered her passion for dermatology—a specialty that holds a special place in her heart and to which she is thrilled to return as a nurse practitioner. Amanda is eager to continue expanding her expertise while providing exceptional care to her patients.

Deeply connected to her Colorado roots, Amanda enjoys staying close to her family, with her parents and brother living nearby. Outside of work, she loves spending time with friends and family, snowboarding, playing sand volleyball, and two-stepping to country music. Amanda is excited to be back in dermatology and looks forward to building meaningful, long-lasting relationships with her patients.
