 Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer, and my journey into health and wellness began with a deeply personal experience. In my teenage years, I started experiencing debilitating stomach pain after being put on birth control. The pain was inconsistent and confusing, vanishing whenever I went off birth control and returning with a vengeance when I resumed it. This cycle continued for years, eventually leading me to the emergency room multiple times, only to be dismissed as a drug seeker.  

Things took a turn for the worse when I developed severe pain in my right shoulder while studying to become a physician assistant. In an EMT course, I learned about organ referral patterns and realized I might be having a gallbladder attack. An ultrasound confirmed multiple gallstones, and blood tests revealed severe pancreatitis, requiring immediate surgery.  

Despite the surgery, my stomach pain persisted and worsened. Multiple GI specialists failed to provide answers until a colonoscopy finally diagnosed me with ulcerative colitis, an autoimmune condition. The medical solution offered was lifelong medication with severe potential side effects, including death. As a single widowed mom with three children, I couldn't accept this as the only solution.  

Dissatisfied with the conventional medical approach, which seemed to focus on treating symptoms rather than root causes, I left physician assistant school to pursue a more natural path. I became a chiropractor, immersing myself in a holistic approach to health. Through this journey, I discovered that my issues stemmed largely from dietary and lifestyle factors—something no doctor had ever addressed with me. Birth control, inadequate sleep, poor hydration, and unhealthy eating habits were all contributing to my condition.  

My path to health wasn't easy, but with extensive training, research, and trial and error, I healed my autoimmune condition and realized the body's incredible capacity for healing when given the right support. This led me practice functional medicine as an associate chiropractor, but after years of seeing patients struggle with no power to change the system, I saw the need for a more systematic approach. 

This realization inspired me to establish my own company - Simplify Health. We follow a systematic approach to health, addressing foundational lifestyle elements such as low toxin living, hydration, nutrition, sleep, exercise, detox, stress management and gut health. By combining individualized testing with a structured framework, we help our clients achieve lasting health improvements.  I believe in empowering women to take control of their health through informed, holistic practices. I’m excited to help you on your journey to wellness. 

Hi! I'm Caroline, Dr. Jennifer's Executive Assistant & Director of Patient Experience. Growing up in a family of doctors and chiropractors, I was exposed to both conventional medicine and natural wellness from an early age. However, it wasn’t until my mid-20s when I began experiencing thyroid issues, gut health challenges, and infertility—that I truly developed a passion for holistic healing. I was fortunate to find a chiropractor in Texas who practiced functional medicine, and through their guidance, I was able to regulate my thyroid naturally and conceive without medical intervention. 

When I moved back to Florida in 2017, I knew I wanted to pursue my passion for wellness and help others on their healing journey in any way I could. That desire led me to work with Dr. Jennifer in 2022, and the experience has been nothing short of incredible. I’ve learned so much from her and have been deeply inspired by the work we do—helping patients uncover and address the root causes of their health challenges through natural, holistic approaches. It’s an honor to be part of people’s wellness journeys, to witness their transformations, and to support Dr. Jennifer as she continues changing lives through Simplify Health. 

I grew up in Florida and graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in Public Relations. I have lived in Jacksonville for seven years with my husband, our son, and our three dogs. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, going to the beach, fishing, and simply enjoying life together.
