Jenny Lord, APRN, FNP-C
Family nurse practitioner at THRIVE Hormonal Health and Wellness. Jenny spent more than 16 years in healthcare, with a focus on cardiology, heart failure, and pulmonary medicine, before bringing that experience to hormone optimization and longevity care in Lakeway.


A more proactive, individualized approach, so patients can feel their best at every stage of life.
That is the goal Jenny wrote down when she joined THRIVE: help patients take a more proactive, individualized approach to their health. The work starts with the whole picture — hormones, metabolism, lifestyle, and prevention — not a single symptom in isolation.
She practices at the Lakeway clinic alongside founder Kristine Kjolhede, FNP-C. Physician supervision for the practice is by Screven Edgerton, MD, FACOG.

A business degree, the mountains, and a turn toward caring for people.
Jenny is originally from Dallas, Texas. She graduated from Colorado State University with a degree in business, then spent time in Vail. The mountain life was the chapter before medicine. She later felt called to a career centered on helping others.
That path led into nursing and, later, family practice. The clinical years that followed were not in a wellness boutique. They were in cardiology, heart failure, and pulmonary medicine, with patients whose conditions did not fit a simple visit.
Cardiology and pulmonary care, then a move into prevention.
For more than 16 years, Jenny has worked in healthcare as a registered nurse and a family nurse practitioner. Her primary focus has been cardiology, heart failure, and pulmonary medicine. Caring for people with complex conditions is what shaped how she thinks about health: hormones, metabolism, lifestyle, and prevention all show up in how someone feels, long before a crisis.
She is now bringing that clinical experience, and a long interest in education and preventive care, into hormone optimization and longevity medicine at THRIVE. The aim is the same one she named in her own words: a proactive, individualized approach, so patients can feel their best at every stage of life.
