“I started working with Dr. Jen in the spring of 2011 to help manage my stress and anxiety filled life style while increasing my energy levels. Dr. Jen is one of the most patient and proactive doctors I have ever had. She spends a lot of time with me and thoroughly addresses all of my questions; she has even taken extra time to follow up with me after our appointment. She actively listens to what I say and we work together to find the most appropriate treatment for me. One thing that I really appreciate is that she always approaches my issues in a holistic manner, treating my entire being versus just the symptoms. I have learned a great deal from her, and feel like we have developed a strong partnership to approach my health care collaboratively. She has met and exceeded the definition of a true doctor.”
