Jessica is certified as a gender-care provider and HIV Specialist. She began her career in the ER where she was confronted with how systemic failures result in folks falling through the cracks, especially folks from the LGBTQ+ community. Learning from and being moved by many close family, friends, and patients of lived experience, she is often quoted as saying, “I knew if I could be doing something, I absolutely should be.” During her graduate studies, she coordinated meetings with the Dean, Assistant Dean, and a dear friend of lived experience to transform the Women’s Health course into Gender Health to ensure gender-affirming healthcare was incorporated into the graduate and undergraduate nursing curriculum at IUSB. Since graduating in 2016, she continued the bold work of bettering healthcare for the LGBTQ+ community in family practices in Indiana and California. She has now branched out into telemedince to improve access to competent care for patients otherwise out of reach.
I believe that the best healthcare comes from a partnership between myself and the people who put their trust in me. I encourage communication and strive to work with each individual to help them achieve their own goals for their health. The practice location in Scottsdale is now open and I look forward to welcoming new patients of all ages, genders and walks of life.
