National Physician Assistant Week is celebrated every year from October 6-12; but we celebrate our Physician Assistants everyday!

Treating patients in today’s complex healthcare settings takes a whole team of professionals. Among these medical workers are physician assistants, broadly trained in a wide spectrum of conditions and tasks. Their education focuses on patient education, preventive care, and chronic care management.

They can help patients improve their quality of life and manage chronic conditions. Physician Assistants are unsung heroes and deserve their moment in the limelight, so this week is to celebrate them and be thankful for their efforts.

Susan Bennett received her Physician Assistant degree, Summa Cum Laude from D’Youville college in 1998. She is certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA) and is a member of the Western New York Physician Assistant Association. She has worked with Dr. Zimmerman since October of 2000. She is the recipient of the Professional and Business Women of Polonia Scholarship and mentors students applying to Physician Assistant programs.
