About Dr. Jenn:
Jenn Simmons, MD spent the first 17 years of her career as Philadelphia's premier breast surgeon. After attending Jefferson Medical College and completing a general surgery residency at Albany Med, she was selected for Philadelphia's first breast disease fellowship. As a breast surgeon, she served as Chief of her department at Einstein Medical Center. She was also the medical director of the Cancer Program. Her experience as a patient in 2017 led her to discover functional medicine. She received her functional medicine certification from the Institute For Functional Medicine in 2019. So enthralled with promoting health rather than managing symptoms, she left her esteemed position in 2019 and started Real Health MD, a functional medicine oasis for anyone on a breast cancer journey who is looking to take charge and reclaim their health. Dr. Jenn is on a mission to help millions of women restore their health following a breast cancer diagnosis so that they may live in their best health for as long as possible.

Curious about the impact of modern diets, hormone health, or the controversial aspects of mammograms? We tackle it all, offering a balanced perspective on alternative screening methods like thermography and the QT scan. Dr. Jenn also sheds light on the critical importance of understanding your body's signals and the root causes of inflammation. This episode is packed with actionable insights into hormone replacement therapy, the dangers of xenoestrogens, and the crucial role of early education in managing breast cancer risks.
