Dr. Marie Patterson has been inducted into the Tennessee Academy of Physician Assistants Hall of Fame. The honor recognizes her decades of work building and advancing the PA profession in Tennessee.

She accepted the role of founding director in the spring of 2020, just as the pandemic hit. She also helped launch the PA program at Lipscomb University, serves as chair of the Tennessee Board of Physician Assistants, and represents the state on the National PA Compact Commission.

"Her impact on physician assistant education across Tennessee and her dedication to service make this Hall of Fame recognition both fitting and well-deserved," said Dean Peter Grandjean.
