Rachel earned her Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies in 2023 and went on to complete her Doctor of Medical Science degree in 2025 at A.T. Still University. During her doctoral work, she focused her research on LGBTQ+ education and HIV care, areas she continues to be passionate about.
She began her clinical career at Valleywise Health Medical Center, where she worked in inpatient internal medicine across both acute care and psychiatric settings. These experiences strengthened her skills in managing acute illnesses, treating individuals with chronic conditions, and caring for patients with complex psychiatric needs.
Rachel is dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care and is committed to supporting each patient with kindness, respect, and genuine understanding.
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, Rachel believes strongly in a patient-centered approach that honors each individual’s story and ensures they feel heard, valued, and supported throughout their healthcare journey.
Outside of work, Rachel loves spending time with her fiancé and their dog, Ghost. She is always on the hunt for a great cup of coffee and enjoys making pizza at home. She also appreciates a good book, doing house projects, getting out for a bike ride, and spending quality time with her friends and family.
