The Physician Assistant (PA) complements and assists the work of the attending faculty, surgical fellows, and surgical residents to provide integrative inpatient and outpatient care in the surgery service. Our Plastic Surgery faculty offer state of the art care for patients with a wide range of problems arising from congenital deformity, cancer, trauma and burns.
