Question: How did you become interested in healthcare?
Savannah: I have always known I wanted a healthcare career. Science and medicine have been passions of mine for as long as I can remember, and becoming a PA has allowed me to make a meaningful impact in my patients’ lives.
A personal experience as an ENT patient inspired me to enter this field. I’m committed to creating that same positive impact for my patients through strong rapport, medical management, and hands-on procedures.
Before joining the ENT world, I worked in adult Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine. Having this background gives me a unique perspective on ENT conditions and potentially associated comorbidities.
Question: Can you give an example of the proactive approach you encourage patients to take?
Savannah: I seek to keep each patient’s individual goals and overall health at the center of our conversation. I want my patients to continue pursuing the things they enjoy while simultaneously prioritizing their health through a proactive, rather than reactive, approach whenever possible.
For example, if we can optimize the nose and sinuses with a maintenance regimen, such as nasal irrigation and various nasal sprays, then I may be able to prevent the severity or even the occurrence of sinus infections, rather than waiting to start therapies until someone is sick.
Question: What do you enjoy most about ENTOne?
Savannah: I enjoy the office culture and patients at ENTOne. Building relationships is what I enjoy most in life, so I invest myself in the people I surround myself with.
