Jessica Rowe, FNP

Whether she’s harvesting tomatoes or helping a patient manage their health, Jessica Rowe, a family nurse practitioner, brings intention, care, and a personal touch to everything she does. Now, she’s putting down new roots at Northeast Georgia Physicians Group (NGPG) Flowery Branch and is ready to grow alongside her patients.

Jessica's journey into healthcare started with a calling to be part of something bigger than herself. She chose nursing because she wanted to make a real difference, and quickly discovered she had both the passion and the mindset for nursing. That sense of purpose only grew during a service trip to Peru, where she provided women's health care and wellness checks in local clinics and open-air markets.

After earning her bachelor’s degree in nursing from Augusta University and her master’s degree from the University of North Georgia in Dahlonega, Jessica was thrown into the height of the COVID-19 pandemic as a new graduate. Working on overwhelmed hospital units at Emory Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Atlanta, and then later in Florida, she took on roles far beyond the bedside. She most recently worked at Northeast Georgia Medical Center Braselton, just eight miles from the new NGPG Flowery Branch building, where she will now provide care.

Outside of work, Jessica enjoys spending time in her garden, where she grows all kinds of vegetables. She likes cooking and baking with the produce she harvests, as well as trying out new restaurants, especially if it’s Korean barbecue or Mexican food. She and her husband have three dogs – Bailey, Copper, and Diesel – and five chickens. They enjoy traveling and hope to soon cross off Europe from their list of travel destinations.
