🌟 Happy Nurse Practitioner Week! 🌟
Today we’re celebrating Jordan Morris, FNP-C, one of our incredible Nurse Practitioners here at Mississippi Arthritis Clinic!

Jordan is originally from Mobile, AL, but grew up in Jackson, MS, where she graduated from Jackson Academy. She attended Ole Miss, earning her degree in Psychology before completing her BSN and MSN at the University of South Alabama. Jordan began her nursing career in 2012 in the Emergency Room at St. Dominic’s, later working in Family Medicine as a Nurse Practitioner before joining us in Rheumatology.

“I love being an NP, especially at Mississippi Arthritis Clinic, because of the relationships I’ve built with my patients,” Jordan shared. “We work together to find the best treatment to fit their needs — and sometimes that means helping beyond medicine. We’ve laughed and cried together. We’ve built a special trust and bond that allows me to walk with them in a meaningful way.” 💙

Jordan is married to Daniel Morris, and they have two children, Shepherd (6) and Ann Richard (5), both students at MRA — with a baby boy on the way very soon! Outside of work, she enjoys cooking, traveling with her family, and finding new adventures together.

I enjoy getting to know my patients as individuals — they often become like family.” 💙

Outside the clinic, Lauren loves spending time with her husband and their three kids, going to church, cheering on Ole Miss, and watching her husband fly helicopters or race dirt cars. And when she gets a quiet moment, you’ll find her listening to a good audiobook!
