MN Women's Care Provider Profile
Jocelin Wehlage, DNP, WHNP, PHN
Doctor of Nursing Practice
Jocelin brings a diverse nursing background to her practice. Prior to becoming a Nurse Practitioner, she worked in both emergency and inpatient settings, caring for patients with a wide range of acute and complex medical conditions, including heart conditions.
These experiences strengthened her clinical assessment, critical-thinking, and patient-education skills and provided a strong foundation for her work as a primary and women’s healthcare provider. Jocelin has focused her career on providing evidence-based care that addresses the whole patient—not just a diagnosis or individual symptom. She particularly enjoys helping patients navigate transitions in reproductive health, from pregnancy and postpartum care to perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Jocelin's View of Patient Care
As a practitioner, Jocelin is committed to providing safe, high quality patient-centered care. She follows the standards of trauma-informed care with these principles in mind: safety, choice, collaboration, and empowerment.
About her approach to care, she says:
"I believe healthcare works best when patients feel heard, respected, and empowered to be an active part of their care. My goal is to create a space where patients can ask questions, discuss options, and work together to create a plan that supports their health and quality of life."
