Jessica Mickels, MSN, APRN, AGACNP-BC, CNOR, RNFA - Coordinator

Jessica earned her Adult Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner Degree (AGACNP) through Herzing University and has worked in a variety of healthcare roles for over 10 years. Jessica began her career with Hannibal Regional in 2014 as a registered nurse and recently completed her education and training to be an AGACNP. While Jessica loved being the first-assistant in general, robotic, and bariatric surgery for the last few years she felt something had been missing. Although she appreciated the privilege of supporting patients in their most vulnerable states in the surgery suite, she wasn't part of their journey before or after surgery. Choosing to become a surgical nurse practitioner has allowed her to be involved in her patients' entire journey. She finds it very rewarding to see these patients before surgery, hear what their goals are for themselves and their families, and watch as they become the healthiest versions of their selves by using the tools that the Weight Management Solutions program offers.
