About Kalita Jackson
I am Kalita Higginbotham-Jackson, DNP, FNP-C, a Family Nurse Practitioner with more than 15 years of healthcare experience. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from Jacksonville University and my Master of Science in Nursing, Family Nurse Practitioner, from Emory University. My clinical work spans family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, and nephrology.
I care for patients with both acute and chronic health concerns, including hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. I provide preventive care, health assessments, diagnostic testing, medication management, wellness counseling, and individualized treatment plans. My experience also includes preoperative evaluations, kidney care in outpatient and dialysis settings, and coordination with specialists when patients need additional support.
I believe patients deserve clear information and an active role in decisions about their health. I take time to understand each person's concerns, explain the reasoning behind a care plan, and set practical goals together. My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based care, with attention to the whole person. I aim to help patients manage ongoing conditions, address new symptoms, and make informed choices that support their long-term well-being.
