Hi Tiffani,
It is indeed possible to replace the SD card reader, but since it's soldered to the motherboard, you'll need some upper-level soldering skills to remove the old one and resolder the new one, as it is a surface mounted device.
The replacement part itself isn't too difficult to find; it came up on eBay easily enough; you can also check other sites like Amazon and AliExpress. Here's an independent shop that offers it for sale. (I hate putting up eBay listings because in a month or a year or five years that listing will be gone and the link will be worthless.)

iFixit generally doesn't do guides that involve soldering, so there's not a specific guide to replacing that part, but the motherboard replacement guide will get you to the point where you'd be ready to do the soldering if you feel comfortable with doing that.

If you're not confident enough of your soldering skills, then it shouldn't be too hard to find a local repair shop that can handle what should be a fairly simple job for them.
Good luck; let us know how it goes!
