About Dr Jen

Jennifer L Liles, M.D.

Dr Jen remembers telling her parents that she wanted to be a doctor when she was about 6 years old…and of course she was performing physical exams on all of her baby dolls! With steadfast determination and a lot of support from family and friends, her dream became a reality.

Dr Liles graduated medical school in 2008 from the University of Kentucky. From there, she moved to Columbia, SC to complete a pediatric internship and residency at Palmetto Health Richland Pediatric Hospital.

“I will always cherish my time in South Carolina because the knowledge I gained coupled with the extraordinary people I worked with have shaped the physician I am today.” ~Dr Jen

In 2011, Dr Jen returned home to practice pediatrics where she worked alongside some wonderful pediatricians and nurse practitioners. Her true calling was realized in 2017 with the opening of Premier Pediatrics and Wellness, a concierge pediatrics practice with pediatric and adult wellness services.
