About Me

Gastroenterology issues have a tremendous impact on quality of life. My goal is to work together with patients to understand and treat their symptoms and equally important, to empower patients by providing the support and knowledge they need to feel confident in managing their conditions.

- Jennifer Yeh, MD

Most people have experienced gastrointestinal symptoms at some point in life, and the underlying diseases can range from mild to severe and have a long-lasting impact on health and quality of life. As a gastroenterologist, Dr. Yeh believes there is a unique opportunity to diagnose and manage a wide variety of conditions and significantly impact patients’ well-being and quality of life. 

Dr. Yeh believes that the opportunity to help care for people’s health is a true privilege. Being a part of a patient-physician team built on trust and communication and working towards a shared goal of improving health through medical and procedural tools is deeply meaningful on both professional and personal levels.

 

Other Interests: 

Having previously lived in many different states, Dr. Yeh finds that Portland and the surrounding area has an unparalleled balance of nature, culture, and a food scene that she is looking forward to exploring. 

Outside of work, Dr. Yeh enjoys spending time with family, reading, trying new restaurants, and exploring the great outdoors.
