Jesselyn Gaona, MD

Jesselyn is a native of Phoenix.  She attended the University of Arizona and graduated in 2007 with a double major in Biology and Spanish Literature.  One of her favorite experiences from college was the time she spent studying in Spain.  Jesselyn was a member of the first graduating class of the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix.  There were only 24 students in the inaugural class, and she feels fortunate to have had such a unique medical school experience.  She completed her Family Medicine Residency at Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center, and served as Chief Resident during her final year.  Jesselyn has been working at the Wesley Health Center since graduating from residency in 2014.  Her specific interests within family medicine include prenatal care and pediatrics.

In her spare time, Jesselyn enjoys running, hiking, reading and spending time with her husband and daughter.
