I’m 65 years old, and thanks to a 35-year career at the Department of Defense, I’ve been happily retired for just about a decade. I live in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, with my husband Bill, our dog Tess, short for Tess the Mess, and our cat Amoco, who is named for the gas station where we found her.

I was a first grade teacher for six years before becoming a reading specialist for kids with learning disabilities. After having four children of my own, I decided to be a stay-at-home mom and teach my children, along with my nieces and nephews.

Patient comments
Dr. Jain is an outstanding Physician. She has my complete trust and respect. I wish I could say more to praise her qualities.
Dr. Jain and [...] spent a good amount of time with me, went over my medical condition, thoroughly explained my treatment options, including possible side effects, and answered all of my questions. The doctors and staff were very courteous and professional.
Dr Jain is so sweet ...one of the kindest people I've ever had the pleasure to know!!
My health provider and team treat me like family.
My doctor, nurse, and nurse assistant were all wonderful. Also the young woman who checked me out and scheduled my next appointment was great. [...]
