Meet Kathryn Semans, PA-C

Nothing is more rewarding than knowing I have helped someone or have made a positive difference in their life. This is one of the main reasons why I’ve pursued a career in the medical field. I have the opportunity to help people every day. Gastroenterology, in particular, deals with very personal problems and discussing them with another person can be quite difficult. There is a unique element of trust that must be established between a clinician and their patient in order to successfully address the patient’s GI concerns. It is my goal to establish this special relationship of trust with my patients so that I may understand their concerns and help them to the best of my knowledge and capability. A great deal of empathy is also crucial to achieve optimal care. By understanding my patient’s concerns and sympathizing with how it influences their quality of life, I hope to always provide the best possible care, as if I was treating my own loved one.

My other interests include fitness, nutrition, bargain shopping, cleaning, yard work/landscaping, outdoor activities including biking, hiking, and spending time at the lake. I also cherish time spent with friends, family and loved ones.
