Viking Connections: Amanda Tucker
Amanda Tucker is a Physician Assistant specializing in Emergency Medicine at University of Chicago Medical Center.
"When I was at Augustana, I didn't know much about what a physician assistant was, and I didn't feel like I had a mentor that was able to help me through the application process. It was also difficult to find a PA that would be willing to let me shadow or give a recommendation letter for the applications. I would love to be able to give students that opportunity to ask questions and determine if a PA is the right career for them, or help them through the application process. I currently take students from the University interested in becoming a PA, and would love to have that same affiliation with my alma mater."
