Dr. Jennifer Willingham is a doctor who chose family medicine because she likes the variety of patients she sees on a daily basis. She enjoys caring for the whole family and sharing the wonderful moments in all phases of their lives.

She finds family medicine gratifying and appreciates the special relationships she has developed with her patients. Whether it’s during maternity care or after a child’s birth and watching them grow up, Dr. Willingham also likes helping a patient and family manage difficult medical problems and providing end of life care.

Before coming to Portland, Dr. Willingham has lived in Brattleboro, Vermont, and Dallas, Texas. Her activities outside of work include baking, knitting, making jewelry, gardening, reading and traveling. She says she is a cat person but thinks dogs are cute, too.
