I have been working towards dropping weight and my A1C so I can have knee replacement surgery. It has taken over a year and Jessell has been very supportive and encouraging along the way explaining injections and reasons for or against certain things and open to answering questions. I highly recommend her as an orthopedic surgeon.

Dr. Owens performed a total knee replacement on my right side. She is absolutely phenomenal as a surgeon. In addition, she has an excellent "bedside manner" explaining completely the procedure and thoroughly answering my questions.

As a science lover who enjoys connecting with people, a career in medicine made sense to Dr. Owens. She chose orthopedics for its unique opportunities to treat disease versus manage it. Her joint replacement specialized practice enables her to build relationships with people who have lived highly active lives and have interesting stories. For Dr. Owens, helping them return to active lifestyles is fulfilling.
Dr. Owens's pursuit of excellence began at an early age. When a college professor told her she couldn’t study sports medicine, compete as a full-time student athlete and do research, she made it her mission to prove the professor wrong. Not only did Owens graduate from Pepperdine University summa cum laude, but she was also named an NCAA All-Academic Honoree (all four years), Women’s Swim Team Scholar-Athlete of the Year (twice), Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Natural Science Division Outstanding Graduate, and was a class valedictorian finalist.
As a Northern Nevada native, Dr. Owens enjoys hiking, skiing, and swimming when she’s not caring for patients.
