Janet Ann Jenkin, MD

My favorite animated movie is the original Beauty and the Beast.

Anne of Green Gables. It was about achieving your hopes and dreams despite being dealt a hard lot in life.

I loved to create and build forts.

Some of my high school teachers who believed in me.

Swimming, crafting, and visiting Disney.

I had some health problems as a child and was taken care of by a great pediatrician. I wanted to grow up to be just like him.

I have worked as a pediatrician in 4 states and multiple different healthcare settings. Each location helped me learn a lot about different cultures and ways of practicing pediatrics. I also learned to practice at a high level because there were not always specialists to refer to. This experience allows me to provide great care to my patients.

I also do circumcisions, frenotomies (tongue tie clipping), and a few other procedures in the clinic.

Extensive personal experience with navigating the education setting due to having a child with high-functioning autism.
