We are happy to announce our June Alumni of the Month is Ms. Katharine Schenck.
Katharine is a 2009 grad from MUPA and is currently working in the ICU at Ascension Columbia St. Mary's Milwaukee. Katharine has been with the group for over 10 years now and is highly regarded amongst all her physician and PA colleagues! She also precepts all the MUPA students in thier clinical year and is consistently named as one of thier favorites.
We asked Katharine a few questions about what she does and here are her responses:
What are you doing as a PA-C: I work in the ICU with a wonderful group of intensivists and APPs. We manage patients in the medical ICU, cardiac ICU, neuro ICU and burn ICU providing both their medical and procedural care while closely collaborating with other specialty service lines.
Best MUPA memory: Dr. Cullinan's anatomy class!
What do you miss most about Marquette: I miss the strong sense of community that Marquette provided as well as all of the great opportunities in the biomedical sciences program. There are many times now in clinical practice that I wish I could go back and retake certain classes or listen again to particular lectures.
Career advice for new graduates: As you start your job search, it is obviously important to find a field that you love and one that challenges you. But I think it is just as important if not more so to find a group of people you genuinely enjoy working with because let's face it there are some days and weeks that you will probably see your co workers more than you will see your family!
