Kaitlin is one of the most professional, knowledgeable, kind, and sympathetic individuals I have ever worked with regarding my medical issues. My partner and I entered our appointment nervous and very emotional about my health issues, and she was so incredibly helpful. Her breadth of knowledge is amazing and she explained things in detail and helped us understand how my issues could be happening and why we need the next steps. I wish I could work with her for all of my issues forever!

As a physician assistant, Katy works closely with the spine-trained neurosurgeons, Dr. James Lynch, Dr. Edward Perry, Dr. Shane Abdunnur, and Dr. Richard Price, and assists in clinical and surgical settings.
During her Master's Physician Assistant training at the University of St. Francis (USF), Katy completed clinical rotations in orthopedics, internal medicine, general surgery, plastic surgery, emergency medicine, family medicine, pediatrics, behavioral medicine, and obstetrics/gynecology. In addition, Katy earned her bachelor's degree in Biology and Environmental Studies at Washington & Lee University (WLU).

In addition to the skills she acquired while first assisting in a variety of surgical sub-specialties, she was also trained in the following procedures: venipuncture, acute and chronic wound care, incision and drainage, joint injection, suturing, bracing, casting, and more.
At the conclusion of her medical training, Katy was inducted into the Pi Alpha National Honor Society for Physician Assistants in recognition of her academic achievement, leadership, and community/professional service.
