“I am a dedicated and knowledgeable physician assistant with 15 years of experience, having graduated from the Arizona School of Health Sciences in 2009. My career has spanned multiple disciplines, including interventional pain management, oncology, and urgent care. This diverse background has allowed me to develop and excel in various procedural skills, particularly using advanced techniques such as ultrasound guidance.
I have a special passion for performing procedures, as it provides a unique opportunity to make a direct and meaningful impact on my patients. My goal is to continue delivering exceptional patient care, both at the bedside and through precise, effective procedures to enhance overall patient outcomes.”
