Dr. Jennifer Leavitt completed medical school at the University of Toronto and moved to Vancouver, BC to do her residency in family medicine at St. Paul’s Hospital.  She divides her time between St. Paul’s Maternity Clinic, where she loves getting to know families and empowering them on their parenting journey and Pender Community Health Centre where her practice focuses on patients who are experiencing marginalization and substance use. Outside of work, she is the mother to two fun kiddos Jackson and Charley. She has learned a lot from her own experience of pregnancy and parenting and brings this passion to her work at St. Paul’s Maternity Clinic. Outside of work and parenting, she loves to spend time outside hiking, biking and skiing.
