Brooke on her internship experiences:

"Shadowing a PA confirmed for me that I would love to work in the medical field, hopefully as a Physician's Assistant. This internship has taught me that there are so many different concentrations within the PA field, I could become a PA and chose to work in whichever medical environment I am most passionate about."
