Cassie is a board-certified Physician Assistant who earned a Bachelor of Science in Health Science and a Master’s in Physician Assistant Studies from Saint Francis University. She provides care for both children and adults. While studying, she developed an interest in exploring therapies in addition to medication and counseling, especially for adolescents at a crucial stage in brain development.
