My journey in healthcare has been shaped by hands-on experience and continuous professional development, beginning as a Healthcare Assistant, progressing through training as a student nurse, and currently working as a Physician Associate. This varied background has given me a unique blend of clinical skills, patient-centred values, and multidisciplinary insight. I am experienced in taking detailed medical histories, carrying out physical examinations, interpreting investigations, and contributing to evidence-based care planning. My time as a PA has enhanced my diagnostic reasoning and clinical autonomy, while my nursing training strengthened my understanding of holistic, compassionate care. With a clear goal of becoming an Advanced Nurse Practitioner, I am committed to further developing my skills in prescribing, advanced assessment, and leading high-quality, responsive care for patients in diverse clinical settings.
