About Jenna

I work full-time as a clinical dietitian at a Children's Hospital. In my spare time, I work to fill the health care gaps I've seen in my community for parents of babies who may have been previously treated in the NICU, as well as ex-preemies, or medically complex kids with feeding tubes.

Approach to care

My approach to care is patient-centered but also keeping in mind a team-based approach. With the population I typically work with (ex-preemies, infants, tube fed children and adults) it is important to think outside the nutrition box sometimes when it comes to difficult issues. Being in touch with doctors for close follow-up and lab work is important.

Your first session with Jenna

In your first session with me, you can expect to provide a detailed history of the problem we are tackling/solving. I want to know what you've tried and what has or hasn't worked in the past. We can then think about the simplest next steps to get your goals achieved.
