North Canton Family Physicians

North Canton Family Physicians was founded in 1983 by Drs. Marilyn Jenrette, John Jenrette, and Susan Mercer. Dr. Jenrette joined Pioneer Physicians Network in 2015 working as a single provider. Over the next several years, the practice would grow, bringing in new physicians and advanced practice providers.

While Dr. Jenrette retried in 2023, her legacy lives on within North Canton Family Physicians. The practice is now staffed by three primary care physicians and two nurse practitioners. We are a mix of family medicine and internal medicine providers that provide care to patients, from their birth and throughout, the simple or complex medical challenges they may face.

The practice philosophy of North Canton Family Physicians emphasizes preventive medicine – it is better and simpler to prevent a problem, if possible, than it is to fix a problem. We strive to develop meaningful and enduring relationships with our patients. The office is run according to Christian principles.

We are accepting new patients and look forward to meeting new members of the medical community. All are welcome in our office – if you have needs or if your goal is simply to maintain your health, please call us to schedule an appointment!

I graduated with my undergrad in 2010 with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from Otterbein College in Westerville (Columbus), Ohio and completed my Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) with a concentration in Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) in December 2015 from Ohio University.

I am certified via the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) and with the Ohio Board of Nursing (OBN). My specialty is family practice, but I have an interest in pediatrics as I was a pediatric intensive care unit nurse (PICU) for 5 years and have always loved working with children. Professionally, I am a member of AANP as well as the Ohio Association of Advanced Practice Nurses (OAAPN).

On a personal level, I am married, have no children at this time, and enjoy walking my dog, spending time with friends and family, and planning vacations- if I was not an NP I would love to be a travel agent! I also grew up in North Canton, live in Green, and went to GlenOak High School.
