Deirdre became a PA to pursue team-based care and build lasting patient relationships. She was drawn to otorhinolaryngology for its focus on improving quality of life and the ability to collaborate with patients. She brings five years of experience and a thoughtful, patient-centered approach to care. The most rewarding part of her work is helping patients return to activities once limited by ENT symptoms.
Deirdre earned her Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies from Westfield State University and her Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy at Bard College at Simon’s Rock. She is certified by the New York State Society of Physician Associates (NYSSPA) and the Society of Physician Assistants in Otorhinolaryngology/Head & Neck Surgery (SPAO-HNS)
Outside of work, Deirdre is active in her church and enjoys hiking, gardening and heirloom seed saving.
