It depends on what your health needs are and what training the NP has had.
My son saw a NP for a year or so because she was free to people without insurance and it was truly a case of you get what you pay for. Her specialized training for her master's degree was in diabetic care yet she was exclusively working with psych patients. Neither son nor I were fond of her and she said some really dumb things at times.
I am sure there are competent NP but she wasn't one of them.
