Jennifer Deem, NP
San Mateo
Nurse Practitioner, an advanced practice degree for primary care providers who complete master’s-level training and board certification and who practice medicine independently. Related degrees include ANP (Adult Nurse Practitioner), FNP (Family Nurse Practitioner), WHNP (Women's Health Nurse Practitioner), and APNP (Advance Practice Nurse Practitioner).
I enjoy partnering with my patients on their health goals and helping them make healthcare decisions to improve their quality of life. I like for my patients to feel heard, understood, and accepted by me so that there is no concern or topic that is "embarrassing" to discuss. I am passionate about providing gender-affirming care and about the rights of others to choose the gender and sexual orientation that matches who they feel they are.
How I stay healthy and happy
I enjoy reading, hiking, swimming, painting, paddle boarding, snowshoeing, and getting together with friends. I also like fiber arts, and I have a small loom. I am passionate about live performances like opera and Broadway shows.
