​​Jennifer Heller, CNM  

​
Jennifer Heller is a Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM), she is a life-long Alaskan, growing up in   South Central Alaska and   fishing with her family in Bristol   Bay.  Listening to stories from   fisher folk about the Aleutians   as a teenager, Unalaska seemed   exotic and exciting, Jennifer   dreamed of coming here. 
 Jennifer went out of state for   school then came back to work for ANMC in Anchorage where she met her husband Murray Buttner.  Moving to Connecticut, Jennifer fulfilled her long-time dream of becoming a midwife, working at a small, full-scope midwifery practice in Anchorage.  
Midwife means "with woman" and midwives are trained to be primary health care providers for women, not only during birth but across their lifespan, a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner with the added component of attending low risk births.  The care Jennifer provides includes adolescent health, preventative screenings, well-woman exams, family planning guidance and contraception, prenatal and postpartum services, and menopausal care.  Jennifer has a passion for serving women at all stages of their lives and is honored and thrilled to be providing care in Unalaska.
