FARMINGTON – Joanna Manum, PA-C, has joined the care team at Franklin Health Orthopedics. She has nine years of surgical specialty experience.
Manum completed her master’s degree in physician assistant studies at Salus University in Pennsylvania, followed by a postsurgical residency at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, Pennsylvania. While at the latter, Manum was exposed to a broad scope of advance surgical skills that included orthopedics, general surgery, trauma and plastic and reconstructive surgery.
“I believe that excellence in health care is achieved by treating each patient as an individual,” she said. “As a physician assistant, my goal is to provide outstanding patient care through collaboration and communication. What I enjoy most about my role is having the opportunity to be a problem solver.”
