Dr. Jen is only seeing patients in St. Albans
Dr. Jennifer Williamson, ND, RH(AHG) is a graduate of the Sonoran University of Health Sciences (formerly Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and Health Sciences) and is the owner and primary physician at Avalon Natural Medicine. After Naturopathic Medical School, she worked in Buffalo, New York for a few years both seeing clients and teaching as adjunct faculty at Daemen University's Complementary and Alternative Therapies program. In 2012, she moved to Vermont 4 months after her first visit in which she was immediately smitten with the state.
Along the way, Dr. Jen has picked up a variety of specialized treatment modalities, many of which she has been the first and/or only physician to be trained in Vermont. These include Walsh's Advanced Nutrient Therapy (2017), Softwave Tissue Regeneration Technologies (2022), and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (2023). As a fat woman, she also celebrates Fat Liberation, Body Diversity, Health At Every Size and is a member of the Association for Size Diversity and Health. She is socially active in her community, vocally supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC citizens, as well as working to make our offices inviting and supportive to the medical needs of these communities.
In 2023, she began her transition to working in her chosen town of Saint Albans, while still managing and seeing Softwave patients in Burlington. Avalon Natural Medicine started in 2011 with a single doc in a rented room, and has since grown to two locations and will have four doctors by the end of 2023!

I am very happy with my experience with Dr. Jen at Avalon. I appreciate all of the detailed intake questions I was asked & the immediate list of supplements to give me more energy. I feel cared for, listened to and trust the whole approach of my new doctor.

I LOVE being a patient at Avalon! Dr. Jen was the first doctor to actually listen to me and acknowledge all of my symptoms instead of trying to push medications and their own agenda on me. As a result, I know more about my body than ever before and have started the healing process!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Jen at Avalon for about 8 months now. For the first time in my life , I feel like a healthcare professional has taken the time to get to know me and my body and is working with me towards solving longstanding health issues and goals. I’ve felt improvements already and feel more in tune with and in control of my health than ever before. I highly recommend working with Dr. Jen!

Dr. Williamson has helped me build my immune system considerably, and has helped to lessen my night time leg cramps. This is the first doctor who has helped me with this 10+ year, painful problem

I went to Avalon Natural Medicine seeking solutions to my mounting health problems instead of just treating the symptoms for the previous 45 years of my life.
For 35+ years of my life, I have suffered with the debilitating agony of migraines. Various 'experiments' with the popular and up-and-coming drugs from the pharmaceutical industry have been the going treatment of my symptoms. These treatments varied from general pain-relievers to medications that worked on the nerves among other things, all of them having detrimental side-effects of some sort, and some side-effects worse than the migraine itself.
I had trusted these medications and the treatments with hope and faith that they would help normalize my life. Some relieved some of the symptoms, but they never relieved them all, and many times I ended up in hospital emergency rooms when the medications didn't work enough or at all, compounding my issue.
On my first visit to Avalon Natural Medicine, my appointment was with Dr. Jenn Williamson. She was quite thorough -moreso than any traditional Western Medicine G.P. Doctor had ever been with me. She was knowledgeable and thoughtful in her interaction with me and genuinely listened to me.
Prior to my first appointment with Dr. Williamson, I had been having 8-9 full-blown migraines a month for over 7 years, costing me a good portion of my life for those years, and costing my insurance a pretty penny in doctor, prescription, and hospital bills.
Over the 10 months I have been going to Avalon Natural Medicine, I have been prescribed various dietary supplements and dietary additions, none of which caused me any negative side-effects, and I now have gone 3-1/2 MONTHS without even ONE full-blown migraine.
I sleep better, more restfully, have no medication-related hangovers or vertigo (after nightly bouts for years), have lost over 30 pounds, have less intense emotional reactions to difficulties in my life, can think more clearly, have gotten far more accomplished in many areas of my life, and feel stronger in many areas of my life and recover more quickly from the upsets that do happen.
Now, would I recommend Avalon Natural Medicine to other people? Absolutely! And I do, on a pretty regular basis. Whenever I hear people complaining about health not improving and not feeling like they are being heard or validated by their medical doctors, I am happy to recommend Avalon to them. I even carry extra Avalon business cards in my wallet so I can give them to a person that is interested.
The way Avalon Natural Medicine treats me is the way we all deserve to be treated. Avalon is proving to me that they have the solutions to my good health. Thank you sooo much, Avalon & Dr. Jenn Williamson for being my PARTNER and for helping me and teaching me how to take control of and improve my health... and doing it NATURALLY.
The way Avalon Natural Medicine treats me is the way we all deserve to be treated.
Sincerely,
T.A.
