Jeni Erker, NP

Jeni Erker is a nurse practitioner at Erker Clinic in Goddard, Kansas, where she provides direct patient care outside the constraints of insurance.

Nursing found her early. She started as a nurse aide at sixteen, caring for her grandparents and working in a long-term care home in Pratt while she pursued her degree. She went on to earn an associate's in nursing and later a bachelor's while working as an RN, gaining experience along the way at Wesley Trauma Center, in skilled and long-term care, in home health, and as a director of nursing in assisted living. Returning to school at Wichita State University, she completed her doctorate in 2018, becoming a nationally certified family nurse practitioner. She began her APRN career in Haysville before bringing her practice home to Goddard, where she now owns Erker Clinic.

A self-described "baseball mom" and wife, Jeni fills her time away from patients with crafting, hunting, and time spent with family and friends.
