Physician Extenders

Our team of Physician Extenders (Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners) is designed to perfectly complement the role of our physician(s). Each of our Physician Assistants is certified by the NCCPA and brings extensive education, training, and experience to the practice.

A patient undergoing surgery will most definitely meet one or more of our Hospital PA’s, who will assist the Neurosurgeon with many aspects of the surgery, address patient needs, and keep the lines of communication open.

Our physician extenders not only assist in the hospital setting, you may meet one of them here in our office, as they perform consultations, write prescriptions and, again, facilitate the relationship between the patient and doctor, so that patients are informed and concerns are promptly address.

“I am passionate about the musculoskeletal system and how it relates to helping patients find health and maximize their level of function with respect to existing medical conditions. In many cases, osteopathic manipulative medicine may offer the benefit of circumventing more invasive therapeutic interventions.”
