Local Physician Assistant Wins State Award

Sky is employed with Southwest Emergency Physicians in Dixie Regional’s emergency department. “One of Jeff’s many fine attributes is his listening skill,” Southwest Regional Medical Director Dr. Steven Van Norman said. “He makes it safe for patients to tell their stories.”

“I have found Jeff to be one of the most knowledgeable, thorough, and accurate diagnosticians / clinicians with whom I've ever had the privilege of working,” nurse practitioner Bridget Penick said. 

The award will be presented at a ceremony held during the Utah Academy of Physician Assistants annual continuing medical education conference at Dixie State University on April 6, 2017 at 6:30 p.m.
