Jennifer is a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner and has been in the nursing field for over 10 years. She entered the field with a passion for women’s health and a holistic model of care. She began her nursing career at Rush University on a surgical floor where the primary patient population was gynecological oncology and it was there that her interest and belief in natural and holistic health was solidified. Upon becoming a Family NP, she worked for a time in primary care and was struck by the lack of focus on wellness care. This led her to working in a more integrated practice setting where the focus was on supporting patients in living their best lives. She is excited to join Well Rooted Women continuing to offer women’s health with a truly holistic and patient-centered approach. She looks forward to expanding her knowledge and growing as a provider.

I believe that true health can only be possible when one can focus on the whole person–body, mind, and spirit. As a provider, I want to partner with patients to understand what health means to them and empower each person to achieve their health goals. I am excited to share my knowledge with patients, giving them the tools they need to take ownership of their health. I truly feel privileged to support patients on their wellness journeys.
