Physician Assistant is Employee of the Month
West Virginia physician assistant Jerry Quisenberry is the March 2009 Employee of the Month at Boone Memorial Hospital in Madison, W. Va.
Compassionate, intelligent and friendly are just a few of the many words used to describe the March 2009 Employee of the Month at Boone Memorial Hospital. Jerry Quisenberry who currently resides in Madison has been a PA (Physician Assistant) at Boone Memorial for nearly 5 years.
“Jerry is very caring. He is so knowledgeable and loves to teach. He’s great about explaining terms so his patients can understand them. Rather than using medical jargon he makes things easy to understand. The patients really like him,” said Rose Isenberg, LPN, who works closely with Jerry.
Jerry began his career at BMH in the Emergency Room and the Rural Health Clinic. “I still work both areas,” he said. “I also work one day a week at the BMH Medical Clinic,” he added.
Jerry graduated from Chapmanville High School in 1994 and attended SWVCC (Southern West Virginia Community & Technical College) shortly thereafter. “I actually graduated as a Lab Tech,” said Jerry. “I had to shadow some Physician Assistants when I worked at Thomas and I thought the work they did was so interesting. So…I only worked one summer as a Lab Tech and decided to attend Marshall University to get my pre-requisites for PA School. I attended Mountain State University and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Physician Assistant Studies in 2000.”
“Jerry finished at the top of his class,” said Administrator Tommy Mullins. “He is an excellent PA and we are glad he is here,” added Mullins.
