Special Career Skills
“You must have good reasoning skills to interview, diagnose and develop a plan of treatment for the patient. Time management is important, as well as being able to communicate well with your team of other healthcare providers.”
Career Choice Decision
“I have been interested in orthopedics every since having several sports-related injuries in high school and college. I chose to attend physician assistant school because I felt it would better suit my lifestyle as a working mother. After doing several rotations in surgery, I loved being in the operating room. Because of my own past injuries, I have found that I can relate to my patients.”
I Like My Career Because
-
I am able to help people and make a difference in their life.
-
I enjoy the people with whom I work.
-
I am able to have continuity of care with my patients. I see them before, during and after surgery.
“Treat all people/things with respect no matter what age, gender, race or ethnicity. Be a well-rounded individual and exercise your mind, body and spirit. Do something that you are passionate about and surround yourself with good people.”
