Tara Olson, PA-C
I have been a physician assistant since 2002 and have worked in many areas of medicine, including plastic/hand/cosmetic surgery, emergency medicine, primary care, and interventional radiology. I love medicine because it enables me to interact with people on a very personal level.
Plastic and hand surgery is an interesting and challenging specialty because it involves so many aspects of the body with a variety of complex issues. I am grateful to be able to collaborate with such a great team of surgeons and staff in our group.
I particularly enjoy working with breast cancer patients, trying to make their journey as pleasant as possible. I have also developed a special interest in cosmetic procedures including Botox®, fillers, and laser treatments.
While not at work I enjoy spending time with my son, friends, and family. I also enjoy dancing, playing golf, and travel.
