PA Scholarships Bring Confidence and Focus

“There’s a lot of uncertainty and anxiety about being a health care student. There is very low tolerance for mistakes, there’s high expectations, and it felt like someone really stepped up and made a vote of confidence in me that I received that scholarship. I actually thought about that quite a bit while I was in the program,” explains Johnathan Fisk, a physician assistant student graduating this May.
