The Critical Glue to Wholistic Health—Dr. Jennifer Riess

Family Doctor: Dr. Jennifer Riess

My family doc is the critical glue that makes sure my care, and the care of my family, is seamless and holistic.

Specialists are important however Jennifer makes sure that the whole picture is put together and that I am listened to as a patient. Jennifer is always able to see me, or a member of my family, and always has a genuine caring smile and a wealth of practical yet vast knowledge to share.

As a mom, she relates to motherhood and the struggles and joys it brings. She is soft when the situation needs it and a strong advocate with specialists and other agencies when my care and health will suffer without it. I don’t know what I would do without her.

The care family physicians provide in Alberta is important however, the care Dr. Riess provides is phenomenal and an integral part of our family’s holistic health. Not an easy feat given healthcare context in Alberta.

Thank you for doing the amazing things you do Dr. Riess!
