General Info

As a PA on the Orthopedics team, I help manage our patients’ orthopedic injuries while they are in the hospital. Most of my patients have multiple injuries that require coordination with other services, so one of the most important parts of my job is helping my patients and their families keep track of the many questions and concerns they may have, especially when they may need multiple surgeries. I enjoy working in orthopedic trauma because of the complexity of each patient's injuries and needs. Each day is different and challenging, and every patient has individual needs. This allows me to interact with various specialties and all members of the care team to provide the best possible care and support for every patient. It’s important to me that my patients feel informed, reassured and well taken care of during a very stressful time. I've always gravitated toward helping others. I feel so lucky to enjoy what I do and love coming to work every day.
