“I always knew I wanted to be in the medical field and that I wanted to remain in the Ohio Valley,” said Ryan. “My goal was to pursue a career where I could make a difference in the lives of others. It is meaningful to me to get to know my patients and their families. I look forward to developing a relationship with my patients and to earn their trust. Being a Physician Assistant is the right field for me.”

A physician assistant is a health care practitioner who practices medicine in collaboration with or under the supervision of a physician. Physician Assistants are trained under the medical model, similarly to physicians, to deliver high-quality medical care in both primary and secondary care settings. Physician assistants are integral members of the health care team in many hospitals and clinical practices.

In his free time, Ryan and Emma enjoy going to Amish Country, being active in their church and visiting mountain towns in North Carolina. Emma is currently pursuing her nursing degree.

Ryan will be working under Dr. Lauren Wooten and he will be at the Barnesville Family Health Center on Friday and at the Freeport Family Health Center, Monday through Thursday.
