Philosophy of care
I believe that everyone is deserving of healthcare that is both skilled and compassionate. I also believe that the patient is always “in the driver's seat” when it comes to their healthcare.
Why Amber went into medicine
After working as a registered nurse for several years, I pursued becoming a physician assistant. I wanted to extend my abilities so that I could help with the full continuum of care – before, during, and after procedures.
Favorite advice to give patients
Be patient with and kind to yourself. Lasting change takes time. Surround yourself with a community that supports you and your healthy choices.
