Who we are

Dr. Jennifer Young, APRN, FNP-C, DNP
Functional Medicine Provider | Founder, Young Vitality Functional Medicine

Dr. Jennifer Young is a board-certified Nurse Practitioner and Doctor of Nursing Practice with nearly a decade of experience in family practice, urgent care, and geriatrics. As the founder of Young Vitality Functional Medicine, she brings a compassionate, whole-person approach to helping patients uncover the root causes of chronic symptoms and reclaim vibrant health.

After years in traditional medicine, Dr. Young transitioned into functional medicine to answer a deeper question: Why are people experiencing these symptoms in the first place? Her passion lies in empowering patients with the knowledge, tools, and support to address the root cause of their symptoms—especially those rooted in gut health, which she believes is foundational to overall wellness and mental clarity.

Dr. Young’s own health journey was the catalyst for her path. After struggling for years with bloating, gas, and brain fog, she was told to “just take Gas-X and fiber” for life. Unsatisfied with that answer, she turned to functional medicine—and discovered that lasting relief was possible. Now symptom-free, she brings that same determination and insight to help others experience the same transformation.

At Young Vitality, Dr. Young takes a holistic, personalized approach that considers every aspect of a patient’s life—nutrition, stress, spiritual wellbeing, mindset, and past experiences—to build sustainable, whole-body health. Her mission is to walk beside you as your guide and biggest cheerleader, equipping you with everything you need to feel your best and live a life full of energy, clarity, and vitality.
