Ronda Shorter is a board-certified Physician Assistant with more than 30 years of experience in healthcare, including over a decade focused specifically on mental health care and support. Her clinical background includes school nursing in middle and high school settings, correctional healthcare, and nearly three decades specializing in women’s health. This diverse experience has given her a broad and compassionate understanding of the unique needs of patients across the lifespan. Ronda is particularly passionate about addressing the ongoing shortage of mental health providers and improving access to care for underserved communities.
She is committed to helping reduce stigma surrounding mental health, particularly within minority communities, and advocates for mental health care to be recognized with the same importance and respect as any other medical condition.
