286: [UNICORN] Transplant Surgery: The Intersection of Surgery and Medicine

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.
