What drew you to become a PA?


From a young age, I knew I wanted to pursue a career in medicine. Being a PA has allowed me to practice medicine and still have a healthy work/life balance. I have practiced in the fields of Sports Medicine and Orthopedics for my entire professional career, but I also try to stay up to date in general medicine as well. I love the team approach to treating patients.
