Tamara Jordan, D.O., MPH, is a sleep medicine physician at Baptist Health Miami Neuroscience Institute. Her clinical interests include sleep apnea, insomnia, narcolepsy and sleep-related movement disorders. She evaluates and treats sleep disorders that can affect a patient’s health, daytime function and quality of life.
Dr. Jordan earned her medical degree from Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine and a Master of Public Health from Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. She then completed an internal medicine residency and sleep medicine fellowship at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. During her internal medicine residency, she proudly cared for underserved inner-city populations and extended her impact by volunteering at community health fairs.
Before becoming a physician, Dr. Jordan worked as a medical technologist at Henry Ford Hospital, performing and reviewing laboratory testing for hospitalized and outpatient patients. She later served as a research assistant and teaching assistant at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, where her work focused on health equity, community engagement and public health research.
Dr. Jordan has contributed to peer-reviewed research on food insecurity, chronic disease, community health and healthcare access. She also completed Henry Ford Hospital’s diversity, equity, inclusion and justice track with honors and was named Intern Ambulatory Resident of the Year for 2022-2023.
With her background in public health, Dr. Jordan understands that treatment is not one-size-fits-all. She works to identify and address barriers that may affect a patient’s care. Her goal is to provide patients with the education and resources they need to make informed decisions and reach their own health goals.
When she is not working, Dr. Jordan enjoys reading, listening to music and spending time with her family.
