About Jennifer Schwartz MD, FHRS

Jennifer Schwartz, MD, earned her Bachelor of Science in Neurobiology from the University of Michigan. She obtained her Doctor of Medicine from New York University School of Medicine in New York, NY.

Dr. Schwartz completed her Internal Medicine Residency at the New York University Medical Center and both a clinical Electrophysiology Fellowship and a clinical Cardiology Fellowship at the New York Presbyterian Hospital – Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York, NY. 

She is board certified in obesity medicine, cardiology, and internal medicine, and is dedicated to providing evidence-based, compassionate care focused on real-life, sustainable solutions. 

While practicing as a cardiac electrophysiologist, Dr. Schwartz embarked on her own weight-loss journey, an experience that deeply informs her empathetic, practical approach to patient care. As a working mother, she understands firsthand the challenges of balancing family, career, and personal health, and incorporates this perspective into individualized treatment plans. She is passionate about improving overall metabolic health, reducing cardiovascular risk – particularly in women – and changing the long-term outcomes of weight-related comorbidities through science-driven, patient-centered care. 

Outside of work, she enjoys travel, skiing, and cheering on the Michigan Wolverines.

Patient Comments (1)

Dr. Shorter was one of the kindest, knowledgeable, and validating doctors I have seen in a long time. She provided feedback, information, and active listening skills during my visit. She made me feel very validated. We came up with a plan. I felt extremely happy with the care for my health and my overall well-being. I am so excited to keep continuing my care under her, and I would absolutely recommend her. It was an extremely positive first meeting and experience overall.

She was very informative about explaining everything to me also telling me what to eat and what not to eat gave me some information on the shot

The entire experience was wonderful, very informative, in line with my weight loss needs and goals.

Excellent in everything the top
