EVA HOUGHTON
Nurse Practitioner, Family
About
Eva Houghton, MSN, FNP-BC is a board‑certified Family Nurse Practitioner who has been caring for patients in Albuquerque for over 13 years. A native New Mexican, Eva began her nursing career in Denver after earning her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Regis University and later completed her Master of Science in Nursing at the University of New Mexico. Eva’s decision to open Southwest Modern Medicine was born from both professional passion and personal experience. She was first introduced to Direct Primary Care (DPC) when a close friend opened a practice in Texas, and she later founded her own DPC clinic to practice medicine the way she believes it should be—focused on strong relationships, timely access, and individualized care. By founding Southwest Modern Medicine, Eva is able to treat patients as people, not numbers, and to provide continuity and personalized attention. Eva is a member of the New Mexico Nurse Practitioner Council and the American Association of Nurse Practitioners, reflecting her commitment to professional development, advocacy, and excellence in advanced practice nursing.
