MEET YOUR APRN
Jennifer FitzGerald,
MSN, APRN, FNP-BC
Founder & Medical Director | Sweet Leaf Health
Jennifer, is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of diverse nursing and advanced-practice experience. Her clinical background spans both inpatient and outpatient medicine, including the care of trauma, transplant, and intensive care patients, as well as comprehensive family medicine.
Throughout her career, Jennifer has had the unique opportunity to care for both civilian patients and active-duty military members and their families across all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. This broad clinical experience has shaped her patient-centered approach—one that recognizes that effective care is highly individualized and extends beyond simply treating a diagnosis.
As the Founder, Owner, and Medical Director of Sweet Leaf Health, Jennifer has developed a Connecticut-based telehealth practice specializing in medical cannabis care, patient education, and personalized treatment guidance. Her work focuses on helping patients better understand cannabis and the endocannabinoid system and how evidence-informed approaches can be incorporated safely and thoughtfully into their overall health and wellness plan.
Jennifer's professional interests extend beyond medical cannabis to whole-health strategies, including nutrition, botanical and plant-based approaches, omega-3 fatty acids, gut health, and lifestyle interventions that may support the endocannabinoid system and overall well-being. She is passionate about bridging conventional medicine with evidence-informed complementary approaches while keeping individualized patient care at the center.
In addition to clinical practice, Jennifer is committed to healthcare education, clinical program development, and advancing provider knowledge. She brings her experience as both a clinician and educator to helping patients and fellow healthcare professionals navigate the rapidly evolving fields of cannabinoid medicine and integrative health.
