Premier Mobile Health Services

Premier Mobile Health Services was founded in 2018 by Nadine “Deanie” Singh, a Registered, Board-certified Nurse Practitioner and the Executive Director. Premier currently consists of 2 mobile medical clinics and a walk-in medical clinic. They provide care to the medically vulnerable and uninsured children and families in Fort Myers, FL and neighboring communities. We are approved by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(C)3 tax exempt organization and there are 9 board members that govern its operation.
Many years ago, Deanie was undocumented, and had no access to care, often being afraid to see medical care in shame, and fear of the possibility of being deported.

Every elevation to a successful path is a journey marked by a story of despair leading to triumph over adversity. Deanie’s beginnings were humbler and more eventful than most. She was a teenage mother and a high school dropout who was drowning in self-destruction and self-hate. She soon realized she was not living to her potential so she began searching for ways she could improve her life. Deanie started by earning her GED and then linked her interests and passions to a career in nursing. In nursing, Deanie found her calling; she loves connecting with and taking care of others. As her confidence grew, she continued to earn more credentials, then quickly emerged into a self-realized entrepreneur, change agent and mother of three children.
Several years ago, while pursuing her master’s degree in nursing, her capstone was about owning a mobile medical clinic after retiring from her full-time job. However, three and a half years later, while working at the local hospital, Deanie discovered that so many young African American males were on dialysis. To add to that, they were being diagnosed with chronic, yet preventable diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and other life-threatening illnesses. Those outcomes could have been different if they had sought medical care earlier in their lives. With a sense of urgency to care for the vulnerable in Lee County, Deanie searched on eBay and from her own personal savings, she purchased her first mobile medical unit. Since making this investment in 2018, and with a staff of five, Premier Mobile has provided health screenings, health education and disease management services to over 7394 patients, including COVID testing and vaccinations to date.

Moreover, Premier Mobile Health Services is celebrated as a teaching facility and quality health care provider in Lee County and is partnered with notable institutions such as the University of Miami and Vanderbilt University. Deanie was recently awarded Preceptor of the Year for Nova Southeastern University. In addition, Premier Mobile is contracted with Aids Healthcare Foundation, Florida Department of Health and in February of 2022, Premier Mobile was named as a sub-award federal grantee through a partnership with Lee Health which is valued at $700,000. Also on June 15, 2022, Premier Mobile was granted the esteemed title of United Way of Lee County provider. Days later, the organization was awarded $400,000 in ARPA funding.

In sum, Deanie sees her story in every patient she serves and hopes to improve the lives of many more in her community.
