Introducing Jennifer Ford, WHNP-BC, ANP-BC
“They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”
This quote perfectly captures the essence of Jennifer Ford, a dedicated women’s health and adult nurse practitioner at Community Care Breast Surgery. With over a decade of experience in breast surgery and a deeply empathetic approach, Jennifer has become a trusted guide for patients navigating complex and emotional breast health concerns.
Jennifer’s journey into healthcare was inspired by her own positive experiences with nurse practitioners—professionals who made her feel heard, respected, and cared for. These encounters didn’t just inform her career choice; they shaped her philosophy of care. For Jennifer, healthcare isn’t about rushing through appointments or focusing solely on symptoms—it’s about seeing the whole person and building a collaborative plan that feels realistic, empowering, and compassionate.
Jennifer’s passion for breast health emerged early in her career and has grown stronger through years of specialized practice. She understands that a breast-related diagnosis—whether it’s cancer, a benign condition, or a high-risk finding—can bring anxiety, fear, and uncertainty. That’s why she prioritizes clear communication, emotional support, and personalized guidance through every phase of care.
Her role at Community Care Breast Surgery allows her to blend clinical expertise with a human touch, helping patients from initial consultation to postoperative recovery and beyond. Whether you’re coming in for a routine evaluation or a more serious concern, Jennifer is there to walk beside you with clarity, kindness, and competence.
About Breast Surgery
Community Care Breast Surgery provides comprehensive, personalized care for patients with breast cancer, benign breast conditions, and those requiring high-risk surveillance. From initial referral through surgery and follow-up, patients receive attentive and compassionate support.
The practice features an on-site Interventional and Endoscopy Suite for select outpatient procedures, offering a private, convenient setting with reduced copayment costs compared to hospital-based care. Surgical procedures are also performed at St. Peter’s Hospital for adults 18 and older.
The care team collaborates closely with other Community Care Physicians (CCP) cancer specialists, including breast radiologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, and oncology nurse navigators, to deliver coordinated cancer treatment close to home.
Located at Wellness Way in Latham, the practice benefits from being co-located with imaging and radiation therapy services, making care more seamless and accessible.
