About Jamie D. Lavender, MD

I was motivated to become a physician after witnessing the health problems my family members and inspirational people in my community suffered from. I wanted to be able to make a difference in their lives, the way they had made a difference in mine, and I felt that as a physician, this was the best way I could achieve my goal. I believe patient care is a partnership between myself and my patient. I work together with my patients to incorporate my clinical knowledge and the art of medicine into the goals that they have for their health. It is my responsibility as a provider to educate my patients about their medical conditions and to empower them to live their healthiest, happiest lives. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, baking and reading fiction and mystery novels, and I have a diverse love of music from jazz/big band to pop. Travel is something I love and I hope to do more of; the place doesn't have to be exotic, I even love exploring new places in my own "backyard."

Dr Lavendar listens well, answers questions, is thorough in responding to follow up questions. If you want someone who is warm and fuzzy, she may not be what you're looking for but if you're looking for a doctor who listens, works with you to address concerns, and asks for the needed labs etc, then she Is your doctor. Everytime I think of changing so my doctor Is closer to my home, I decide against It because she Is a very good primary care doctor.
