Jessica was inspired to work in healthcare by her mother and brother. She felt that a career in nursing would allow her to learn each day from both colleagues and patients. She enjoys being a nurse practitioner because it helps her grow and challenges her to be a better person every day. As a member of Dr. McEwen's weight loss team, she helps patients achieve their goals and supports them during their wellness journey. She believes that life is fulfilling when care teams can experience the transition with patients as they improve their health and quality of life. Jessica views medical and surgical weight loss as an opportunity to treat each patient individually and work together to promote optimal health. When she's not working, she cares for and spends time with family and friends. You can find her riding her horses or out on the lake.
