Jenna Perkins, MSN, WHNP-BC

Expertise in the overlooked: “I’m a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner, specializing in neural gynecology, bladder and vaginal health, and intimacy and pelvic pain. I address complex gynecological conditions often overlooked by traditional providers. With Midi, I am thrilled to apply my deep experience in these and many other overlooked areas to midlife women, who commonly experience hormone-related symptoms such as decreased sexual desire and vaginal dryness.”

Championing healthcare equity: “As a mother of two, I recognize the systemic neglect and mistreatment faced by women, particularly women of color, in healthcare. Following a postpartum hemorrhage during the birth of my first child, I was transferred from a home birth to a hospital where I encountered judgment and underwent stitches without proper consent or anesthesia. While I had expertise to advocate for myself, many women do not and can be mistreated or undertreated by the healthcare system.”

Educating for success: “Everything I do is in service of education. An educated patient is going to be most prepared for success. I spend a lot of time teaching patients about their symptoms and how everything is connected so that they can understand their bodies better and advocate for themselves in all their health care experiences.”
