On a personal level, I am a graduate of the University of Colorado’s Child Health Associate Program, one of the first physician assistant programs developed in the country and the only program that specialized in pediatrics. I have been the Chair of the MCG PA program since 1984 and take great pride in being a part of the leadership of the School of Allied Health Science. Practicing weekly as a physician assistant in the Family Medicine Center of the MCG Health System, I still find my health career exciting. I work with an outstanding group of PA educators that are dedicated and committed to excellence. The Medical College of Georgia PA faculty members have been recognized on national and regional levels for their many contributions to the profession. I am pleased that you are interested in the Medical College of Georgia Physician Assistant Department. Our program is offered on the Augusta campus during the didactic phase and we offer clinical rotations for the second year of training across Georgia and the Southeast and we are expanding these opportunities daily. The Medical College of Georgia has recently celebrated 30 years of physician assistant graduates for the state of Georgia. We are the only state-assisted physician assistant program in Georgia. We embrace our statewide mission in meeting the healthcare needs of Georgia’s citizens. Employers and preceptors rate our graduates with nearly 100% satisfaction rating and our students’ passing rates on the national certification board exceed national averages. Our faculty have worked hard to build a unique graduate curriculum that will develop excellent clinicians, educators and leaders of the future. I look forward to your application.
