“I am dedicated to partnering with patients and their families to develop treatment plans that align with their unique needs and lifestyles. I believe in providing compassionate support and presenting options that empower individuals to take an active role in their care. My goal is to help patients achieve their highest level of functioning with the most effective, yet minimal, medication necessary.”

Faith is an integral part of Janine’s approach to care, guiding her commitment to helping others with empathy and respect. She recognizes that every individual is uniquely created, and she strives to tailor treatment plans to fit each person’s specific circumstances. Regular follow-up appointments ensure that patients and providers remain aligned in their goals and direction for treatment.

Janine earned her Master of Physician Assistant Studies from Grand Valley State University in 2005. Before joining Pine Rest in 2010, she gained valuable experience working in community health, primary care, and inpatient internal medicine. She spent several years providing care on inpatient units before transitioning to outpatient services in 2017. Janine has a particular interest in chronic mental illness and geriatrics, bringing a depth of knowledge and compassion to her work with these populations.

Janine Kerkstra participates in the Diversity Collective.
