"As a physician assistant in obstetrics and gynecology, my care philosophy is grounded in compassion, education and empowerment. I support women through every stage of life by providing evidence-based, personalized care in a respectful, welcoming environment. My goal is to ensure patients feel heard, valued and equipped to make informed decisions about their health," said Jennifer.

"Inspired by my father, also a physician assistant, I was drawn to medicine for its blend of science, problem-solving and human connection. I chose obstetrics and gynecology because I’m passionate about women’s health and building meaningful, long-term relationships with patients. I enjoy being a steady, supportive presence—whether it’s a first exam, navigating pregnancy or managing complex conditions.

"I offer comprehensive services including preventive health, contraceptive counseling, prenatal and postpartum support and management of gynecologic concerns. I work closely with physicians and the care team to ensure safe, seamless and high-quality care."

Outside the clinic, Jennifer enjoys golfing, cycling, playing pickleball, doing Peloton workouts and spending time with her husband and friends outdoors in nice weather.
