PA Medicine Advisory Board

The University of Lynchburg PA Medicine Advisory Board consists of a group of practicing physicians, PAs, and other community healthcare providers that support the development of our Master of PA Medicine (MPAM) program.

This group of individuals will meet on a quarterly basis while providing guidance and direction to the program leaders. Various members will eventually serve as instructional faculty as well as assist in the development of supervised clinical practice sites.
