The Center for Multisystem Disease in Denver specializes in disorders that affect multiple body systems. These diseases often cause such complex symptoms that patients spend years going from one doctor to the next, without ever obtaining an accurate diagnosis because their problem doesn’t fit neatly into a traditional medical specialty.

Jill Schofield, MD founded the Center for Multisystem Disease to provide comprehensive care to patients with conditions such as dysautonomia, mast cell activation syndrome, antiphospholipid syndrome, Sjögren’s syndrome, and celiac disease.  Some of the patients suffering from these disorders also have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome which causes additional struggles. She specializes in immune-mediated disorders that are confounding due to bodywide symptoms, devoting extra time to each patient so she can identify the issues causing their symptoms. She was the recipient of the 2019 Dysautonomia Support Network’s Game Changer Award for her work in the use of IVIG to treat patients with autoimmune forms of dysautonomia.

At the Center for Multisystem Disease, you’ll receive compassionate care that includes not just medication, but support for lifestyle changes that are important for many patients suffering from these disorders. This includes dietary counseling, help with stress reduction, and learning the best ways to exercise to maintain well-being without aggravating your condition.

If you’ve ever felt like no one understands your illness, or worse, if you’ve been told there’s nothing wrong with you or your symptoms are all in your head, you’re not alone. You’ll find a community that welcomes you at the Center for Multisystem Disease. You’ll meet other patients who suffer from the same condition and who understand your struggle.

Your symptoms will never be discounted at the Center for Multisystem Disease. Their goal is to define your underlying disorder or disorders and to provide customized treatment targeted to the root of the problem, rather than just “band-aid” treatments targeted to each symptom.

I was born and raised in San Jose, California.
For my undergraduate education, I attended Santa Clara University and majored in Bioengineering. I went on to attend Touro University Nevada for medical school.
I chose Internal Medicine because I enjoy the critical thinking and problem-solving required. Working through complex cases feels a bit like being a detective, piecing together clues to arrive at the right diagnosis. I also appreciate the breadth of the field, and how it allows me to care for a wide variety of patients and conditions.
In my free time, I enjoy watching sports, going to concerts, trying new restaurants and breweries, and staying active, whether that’s going to the gym, hiking, or playing pickleball.

I have lived in Colorado my whole life - first Highlands Ranch and then Castle Rock. I received my undergraduate degree in Biology from CSU in Fort Collins before returning to south Denver to complete medical school here at RVU. I am passionate about making
patients feel heard and working together to help them meet their goals.

Outside of my career I spend my time with my wife Mikayla and our family and friends. You can find me rock climbing, mountain biking, or cross-country skiing. I also enjoy playing strategy board or video games, gardening, and woodworking in the garage.
