Graham Health System has added Hannah Erickson, APRN, to its urology department, expanding its urology team in west-central Illinois.
Erickson, a Galesburg resident and graduate of Trinity College of Nursing and Health Sciences, joined Graham in October 2025. She is currently training under board-certified urologist David Cao, MD, and will begin seeing the full range of urology patients in December.
For the past three years, Erickson worked in family practice, gaining experience in patient-centered primary care. She holds a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University.
“Dr. Cao is professional, knowledgeable, and an excellent mentor,” Erickson said. “He’s patient and approachable, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn from his expertise as I expand my skills in urology.”
Erickson joins a team that includes Dr. Ernesto Tan, Dr. Thomas Patterson, and Melanie Miller, APRN. Urology services are available in Canton, Galesburg, and Havana, with plans to expand to the Macomb clinic in April 2026.
“Our advanced practice providers are vital to Graham Health System’s ability to provide excellent, coordinated care close to home,” said CEO Robert Senneff. “Hannah’s addition to the urology team strengthens our commitment to delivering exceptional patient experiences in every community we serve.”
Dr. Cao emphasized the role of advanced practice providers: “Their clinical expertise and patient-centered approach allow us to expand services while maintaining the level of excellence that our patients expect.”
