What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a practice where I can lead careful histories, interpret diagnostics, and build personalized treatment plans—especially in Allergy/Immunology or interventional pain and rehab—supported by strong documentation and collaborative clinical teams.

I’m a Physician Assistant focused on delivering detailed, patient-centered care across allergy/immunology, rehabilitation, and pain management. I consistently begin with thorough patient history and history of present illness to guide accurate clinical decisions.

Currently, I serve as a Physician Assistant in Allergy Immunology and Rheumatology, where I conduct allergy Skin Prick Allergy tests for environmental, pet/animal, and food allergens. I interpret diagnostic imaging and blood work to rule out immune deficiencies and abnormalities, then develop personalized treatment plans for both pediatric and adult patients.

Previously, I worked in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Pain Management, where I performed comprehensive physical exams, reviewed X-Ray/MRI/CT imaging, and supported individualized treatment planning. I also delivered interventional procedures including trigger point injections, intra-articular knee injections, and experience with Botox injections, while managing documentation and medication decisions.

Before my clinical PA path, I contributed as a Lab Technician/Research Assistant at Georgetown University Medical Center. I supported experimental work including Western Blotting, Immunohistochemistry, Immunocytochemistry, PCR genotyping, brain sectioning, and microscopy analysis, building a strong foundation in careful, methodical investigation.
