Jessica Ellsworth, MD

Passionate about the desire to form lasting relationships and spend enhanced time with patients, Dr. Ellsworth has chosen to practice at HonorHealth Concierge Medicine at Legacy. Focusing on improving the quality of life of her patients, she specializes in nutrition and longevity medicine, disease prevention and wellness, and has expertise in hormone replacement. She enjoys the use of technology to augment the care she providers but really finds the face-to-face interactions are vital to her goals of partnering with patients throughout their healthcare journey.

Dr. Ellsworth entered the medical profession after raising her children and brings a depth of experience from her years of volunteering with homeless populations, working in the retail setting, and leadership in parent teacher organization to support community education. She received her medical degree from St. Louis University in 2000 and completed her residency training in Family Medicine at Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale in 2003. After residency, she worked in a thriving private practice in the Scottsdale community.

While studying in Oxford, she was influenced by the personal touch she saw in healthcare and seeks to bring this to her patients with HonorHealth. Dr. Ellsworth also believes an active lifestyle is foundational to good health. She is an avid hiker completing the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim hike annually for the last 13 years and is interested how lifestyle and medicine can enhance athletic performance. Motivated by a commitment to give back to others, she has also served on medical missions to both Haiti and Mexico.

"I believe each individual provides a unique treatment challenge. Its crucial that I know my patients, their fears and medical experiences, as well as their families and even their pets. The whole perspective of a person can provide valuable insight in problem solving and treatment," says Dr. Ellsworth.
