About Jennifer Rapoza

Jennifer Rapoza earned her Bachelor of Science degree in nursing, with a minor in sociology, from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. She then furthered her medical expertise, earning her Master of Science degree in nursing, primary care, with a concentration in women’s health, from the Massachusetts General Hospital Institute of Health Professions. Her clinical interests include obesity medicine, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes, and diabetes.

Jennifer’s personal philosophy of care is rooted around her belief that there is no one size fits all model to treating obesity, and that the care administered needs to be tailored to a patient’s goals and needs. After 20 years of practicing in primary care, she learned that in order to reverse or even prevent certain chronic illnesses, she wanted to help treat the root cause of these illnesses – obesity.

When not at work, Jennifer loves to garden, cook, kayak, and spend time with her family and friends.

Actually measure body fat, like in the Wareham office with the nutritionist where she had a body fat scanner, so you can tell how much fat you are actually losing compared to anything else.

Timely as always. Up to date on my situation. It's nice to pick up where I left off instead of starting from beginning especially when seeing md and np intermittently. They are always supportive. They don't make me feel bad about my weight issues and support my use of medication to assist in my weight loss journey.

Working with Jenu00A0 and [Name] has been a positive experience for me. I have been struggling with weightloss since my mid 20s and they approach it in a non judgmental and supportive way and even though my loss is very slow, it is all still positive and keeping me engaged and focused on my overall health. No diet alone has ever been able to say that.

I feel that I get the very best care from this provider. All of my issues are discussed and a plan to help (myself) is put in place. I get great and creative advice on what to do and how to do it. I have always been told if I have any questions, issues or concerns I should not hesitate to call. I have recommended this provider to several friends. Excellent care!

I tried the greatest opportunities to see Jennifer [Name]. Your staff is phenomenal one appointment I was unable to make it would take me at least an hour to get to the appointment and I had expressed that in a message and her receptionist called me back and offered me a telehealth appointment, which was extremely helpful. I think that your patient service representative are very efficient and they're very they're kind very nice. and I think Jennifer [Name] doing a phenomenal job.

I needed a new referral before my appointment yesterday. I was contacted the day before by this office to let me know this. The office staff was more concerned with collecting the $196 than letting me know I needed my referral renewed. Perhaps if they had given me more than 24 hours to rectify this situation I could have gotten the referral in time for my appointment.

Jen is amazing. I'm really struggling with my health, out of work for a year and battling severe autoimmune issues. I know my weight contributes to my pain, but it's hard to work on weight loss when you can barely move. At no point did I feel like Jen was ever judging or critical in any way, and I know she is dedicated to helping me find a way to feel better.

Southcoast Health physician profiles now feature star ratings. Below, you’ll find frequently asked questions about our process for calculating the ratings.

Why does Southcoast publish survey ratings online?
Southcoast is dedicated to providing patients and consumers with helpful information about the quality of our patients’ experiences. Star ratings published on our physician biography pages are based on actual responses from patients of that particular physician to patient satisfaction surveys that are distributed and processed by a national patient satisfaction survey vendor.

Who receives the survey?
Our vendor sends surveys via SMS or email to all patients seen in our outpatient physician practices who have a valid smart phone number or email address on file with Southcoast Health. Surveys are sent to patients within a few days of their appointment.

How is the Patient Satisfaction Star Rating Calculated?
Star ratings are calculated using an average of all survey responses to each of three questions: Courtesy and Respect of Staff, Provider Overall Rating, and Willingness to Recommend Provider’s Office. The star rating displayed on our physicians’ main biography page represents the average of the three measures for that particular physician.
