Jessica Pedersen, PA-C

I was born in Illinois and am the youngest of five siblings. I grew up with an active lifestyle and playing sports mostly every weekend, but focused mainly on softball which I played for 18 years. I then moved to Arizona and attended the University of Arizona and majored in nutritional science. I graduated in 2018 and worked as a physical therapy technician before starting school at A.T. Still University where I received my Masters of Science in Physician Assistant Studies. 

Growing up I always knew I wanted to help others and my passion for science, nutrition, and physiology destined me for a job in healthcare. I’m excited I can be in a position where I can help others in their moments of need, and I’m grateful to be part of the process to them getting back to the activities they enjoy.

I’m passionate about staying active and I enjoy hiking, running, and weightlifting. In my free time I like to spend time with friends and family, travel, and explore new restaurants.
