Anyone who knows me has probably heard me say, “Adults aren’t really my thing.” Pediatrics has always had my heart.
But the other weekend, I was enjoying dinner with a group of incredible women, and something unexpected happened.
As the conversation turned to health and the things we navigate in our own bodies, I caught myself thinking, “I would love to help.”
And then I reminded myself: Jessica, you’re at dinner. Sometimes your job is simply to listen.
So I listened. But that feeling stayed with me.
There was this unexpected excitement about the possibility of supporting women alongside the children I’ve spent so many years caring for.
Living with autoimmune disease myself, there was a sense of familiarity in that conversation. My experience isn’t every woman’s experience, but I know what it feels like to want someone to take the time, listen closely, ask questions, and consider the whole picture.
If you’ve been in my office with your child, you know I show up as myself. I ask questions. We talk honestly. And I believe there’s value in looking beyond an isolated symptom to understand what might be contributing to how someone feels.
That’s the same approach I would bring to caring for women.
Prevention, nutrition, lifestyle, and exploring underlying contributors alongside conventional medical care.
I’m considering opening my practice to 3 adult women who are looking for a more comprehensive approach to their health. Maybe you’re dealing with persistent fatigue, changes in sleep, difficulty managing your weight, or simply feel like something is off and want someone to take the time to explore it with you.
Pediatrics still has my heart. That isn’t changing. But perhaps there’s room for something else, too.
Maybe this is one of those little nudges from God that deserves my attention, so I’m putting it out there.
I don’t have every detail figured out yet, and I’m okay with that. Sometimes you have to explore an idea to see where it leads.
If this sounds like the kind of care you’ve been looking for, I’d love to hear from you as I work through what this could look like. Send me a text at (214) 247- 6276 if you're interested.
