I am a Current VCU student studying biology, kinesiology, and chemistry on the Pre-PA track. I have over a year of experience in healthcare working as a PCT on a surgical floor at VCU's Critical Care hospital. During my service at VCU, I learned fundamental patient care, which has equipped me for my next employment in healthcare. My shadowing experience with PAs in various specialties (geriatrics, ortho, urology, and dermatology) has shown me the successful work dynamic between MAs and making me a great fit for the position as an MA.
