In PA school we learned the first treatment to almost every disease is lifestyle modifications. But why do we wait until a patient receives a diagnosis instead of being proactive about starting lifestyle modifications earlier? How do we actually help patients follow through with making effective lifestyle modifications? What do we do if we know we need to make changes in our own lifestyles?

My guest today is here to answer these questions and more! Dr. Jennifer Harrington is a PA with 25 years of experience and has held pivotal roles in professional leadership, advocacy, and PA education. She worked in rural medicine for many years and is now a PA program director, following her passion for education. She also runs her own non-profit, Called to Serve, organizing medical missions trips. 

Dr. Harrington shares how she was able to prevent burnout by creating routines and habits that focus on nutrition and quality self care.

I love to highlight Unicorn PAs, especially PAs who are working in rarer, unique specialities. My guest today absolutely fits that bill! Paige Grasso is a surgical PA working in transplant and hepatobiliary surgery. Paige shares what life is like as a transplant surgery PA and how she got started in this unique speciality.

We also discuss what every clinician (regardless of specialty) needs to know about patients who’ve received an organ transplant, specifically in regards to immunosuppression therapy. 

In addition, Paige and I talk about interviewing for a new job, whether you’re a new grad or a seasoned PA. What should you ask about when interviewing and what is important to look for during the orientation period of a new job?

Tune in to hear Paige’s unique perspective as a transplant surgery PA and how you can apply some of these pearls to your own practice. Join in Paige’s excitement of “doing what no one else is doing” in this niche specialty at the intersection of surgery and medicine.
