Jena Repking is a devoted Family Nurse Practitioner and Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner who began her career in 2005 as a patient advocate in adult emergency medicine. In 2007, she began a career in pediatrics as a patient support tech at Mease Countryside Hospital. Jena worked as a patient care tech in pediatrics and the adult emergency department while obtaining her undergraduate nursing degrees. During her nursing career, Jena worked at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital; four years on the Pediatric Float Team and five years in the Pediatric Emergency Department. She also worked in the adult emergency department for 1 year. Jena obtained her Associate’s and Bachelor’s Degrees in Nursing from St. Petersburg College. She then earned her Master’s Degree in 2017 from The University of Tampa.  Jena completed a rotation at Wholistic Pediatrics & Family Care (WPFC) where she had the opportunity to gain clinical knowledge directly from Dr. David.

Since becoming a nurse practitioner in 2017, Jena has built a diverse and enriching career in healthcare. Her professional journey began in a walk-in clinic, where she provided care for both children and adults, honing her skills across a wide range of medical issues.

She has since specialized in adult primary care with a focus on functional and root cause medicine.

 In 2024, Jena advanced her expertise by completing her Functional Medicine certification from the School of Applied Functional Medicine.

Jena finds great fulfillment in her work with children, but her passion extends to treating individuals with chronic conditions as well. She has a particular interest in managing chronic inflammation and fatigue, autoimmune diseases, menstrual cycle issues, preconception, perimenopause, menopause, weight loss, gut health, and bio-identical hormone replacement.

Her own personal health concerns as a child led her mom to seek alternative treatment options. Starting at age 6, she was introduced to many alternative and natural treatment modalities including homeopathy, craniosacral therapy, food allergy testing, dietary modifications, supplementation, and occupational therapy. These successful alternative treatments are what led Jena to integrative medicine.

Her comprehensive approach and commitment to addressing underlying causes ensure that her patients receive personalized and effective care.

Jena is married and has three children. She and her family enjoy outdoor activities, exercise, cooking, and family game nights.
