Meet Dr. J: Bringing Exceptional Care and Expertise to Harper Health

Hello everyone! I'm Dr. Shilpa Joglekar, though my patients affectionately call me "Dr. J." I'm excited to announce that I have joined the Harper Health family. With 18 years of experience in internal medicine, I also have a strong interest in fitness and health optimization.

My Education & Accolades:

Undergraduate: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (Industrial Engineering)

Medical Degree: The Chicago Medical School

Residency: Lutheran General Hospital, Park Ridge - where I was awarded Outstanding Performance

 What Makes Me Stand Out?

My approach to medicine is inspired by a holistic health model, focusing on treatment and preventive care through lifestyle and fitness. I believe in integrating wellness into patient care by offering personalized strategies encompassing exercise, nutrition, and mental health. This ensures my patients are not just treated for ailments but are active partners in their health journey.

 Why I Transitioned to Concierge Primary Care:

I moved from traditional primary care to concierge medicine to offer more personalized, attentive care. In traditional settings, time constraints often limit the depth of care I can provide. Concierge medicine allows me to spend more time with each patient, profoundly understanding their health needs and crafting comprehensive plans that genuinely resonate with their lifestyle and goals. This model aligns perfectly with my vision of medicine, where prevention, education, and a partnership approach to health are central.

I am genuinely excited to join Harper Health, where I can combine my extensive expertise in healthcare with my passion for fitness. I look forward to contributing to the team at Harper Health and supporting our community in their journey towards a healthier life.

Sincerely,

Dr. J
