Jennifer Lucero, FNP-C, MSCP
Jennifer Lucero, FNP-C, MSCP, is a board-certified Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Apex Hormone Health. Her practice is rooted in a deeply personal and transformative journey, which fuels her passion for integrative and functional medicine. Specializing in hormone optimization, weight loss, and root-cause-focused care, Jennifer provides her patients with a holistic, patient-centered approach to achieving optimal health.
Jennifer’s dedication to healthcare goes beyond professional expertise—it stems from her own life experiences. Diagnosed with lung cancer shortly after opening her practice, Jennifer faced immense challenges, including an upper lobectomy, phrenic nerve damage, and diaphragm paralysis. Her perseverance led her to a groundbreaking phrenic nerve reconstruction surgery, after which she regained movement and defied expectations by running a half marathon just months later. This journey of resilience has shaped her unwavering commitment to empowering others on their health journeys.
At Apex Hormone Health, Jennifer integrates advanced diagnostic testing, personalized treatment plans, and evidence-based strategies to address the root causes of health concerns. By evaluating critical biomarkers such as hormone levels, gut health, and nutrient status, Jennifer ensures that each patient receives care tailored to their unique needs. Her goal is not just symptom relief but long-term vitality and well-being.
With over two decades of experience in healthcare, she has had the privilege of serving as a firefighter paramedic, nurse, and nurse practitioner, working in emergency medicine, family practice, and integrative medicine. She is certified in Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) through Worldlink and the Menopause Society and has received advanced training through BHRT Academy and The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M). Additionally, she is certified as a Menopause Specialist through Girls Gone Strong, further enhancing her expertise in women’s health and hormone optimization.
Outside of work, Jennifer loves long-distance running, swimming, hiking, CrossFit, and traveling with her family. She cherishes spending time with her husband, their two girls, and their two energetic huskies.
