Jennifer Waljee, MD, MPH, MSc

Jennifer Waljee was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, and currently resides in Ann Arbor, Michigan as she completes her clinical training. She received her Bachelor of Science and Masters of Public Health degrees at the University of Michigan in both Biology and Epidemiology, and completed medical school at Emory University. She is currently a Plastic Surgery fellow at the University of Michigan, and recently completed a health-services research fellowship through the Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars Program. Her interests include patient-centered outcomes and the delivery of health care, and the influence of the patient and physician interaction on patient decision making, specifically as it relates to the surgical management of breast cancer. She and her husband hope to continue their careers in clinical medicine, administration, and education jointly in Kenya and the United States.
