"For Emily Herbst, a career in healthcare was a natural fit. She grew up in a family where healthy living was part of everyday life – staying active, playing sports and eating well. At the same time, Emily was drawn to science, loved solving puzzles and was curious about how things worked. Her mother, a nurse practitioner, was an early role model, showing Emily firsthand the difference a healthcare professional can make in the lives of others.
“I’ve always wanted to help people and advocate for them,” Emily says. “I wanted to be a helping hand and someone they could lean on. Becoming a PA felt like the best way to make that kind of difference.”
Emily chose primary care because it brings together two areas she is particularly passionate about: preventive medicine and public health. She values the opportunity to build lasting relationships with patients and serve as their healthcare “home base,” helping coordinate their care even when specialists are involved.
Patient education is an important part of her approach. She enjoys talking about vaccines and recommended screenings, as well as lifestyle changes that can have a meaningful impact on long-term health, from exercising and eating well to quitting smoking and reducing alcohol use. She believes patients are more empowered to take an active role in their health when they understand the why behind their care.
Patients appreciate Emily’s calm, compassionate approach. She makes a point of giving patients time to explain what’s bringing them in and doesn’t believe in rushing through an appointment. Her patience, understanding and willingness to truly listen help patients feel heard and comfortable.
When she’s not working, Emily enjoys a range of hobbies, including reading, crocheting and knitting. She loves living near the beach and spending time outdoors. And when winter arrives, she heads north to Vermont, where she enjoys snowboarding."
