ORTHOPEDIC PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT
Professional Summary

Highly-motivated, dedicated and compassionate Board Certified Physician Assistant with 7 years of clinical and surgical  experience. My focus has mainly been in the surgical side of medicine as I've found it exciting and rewarding. However, within the last year I've transitioned to a non-surgical clinical role. I have found the non-surgical role to be very different but rewarding as well . My experience is that it's more personal. Whether I'm in a surgical or non-surgical role my focus remains the same. It's to improve the quality of life for my patients. That is and will always be my goal as a Physician Assistant.
