“I treat patients like they are family members and I consider how I want to be treated."

About Me
Ryan previously practiced as a physician assistant in orthopedics in Lancaster and Hermitage, Pennsylvania. He also served in the US Army as part of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan in battlefield trauma surgery.
Pain management patients most commonly experience pain that outlasts the normal healing period following an accident or injury. Many patients have pain related to other conditions for which physical therapy, steroid therapy, or pain medication have not been enough to relieve their discomfort.
"Healthcare providers generally don’t work for compliments or praise,” says Ryan. “But the best days come when I see a patient smile. Then I know I am making a difference to improve their quality of life.”
Ryan earned a Bachelor of Science in business management from Penn State University and after serving with distinction in the US Army, earned a Master of Physician Assistant Studies from Chatham University.
When he’s not practicing medicine at Mount Nittany Health, Ryan says he enjoys many hobbies in the outdoors and appreciates all that nature offers.
