PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT - ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY
Professional Summary
I am a motivated and enthusiastic Physician Assistant with a well rounded healthcare experience.  I enjoyed 21 years of pre-hospital experience as a Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician Paramedic.  I spent 2 years working in the Corrections setting as a Paramedic for Allenwood Federal Penitentiary before returning to college to further my education as a Physician Assistant.  I began my career as a Physician Assistant working in a large metropolitan emergency department.  I have since expanded my experience in Orthopedics, both in Orthopedic trauma and Orthopedic surgery.
