Bio

Tiffany White is a board-certified physician assistant who has specialized in otolaryngology since 2010. She has spent her career working in outpatient settings with specialization in head and neck surgery, facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, allergies, and hearing disorders, treating both children and adults. Her approach to patient care is one that centers around compassion, respect, and prevention. She has had the opportunity to train physician assistants and nurse practitioners new to the specialty as well as medical assistants, scribes, and students. Tiffany earned a Master in Physician Assistant Studies from the University of Kentucky, receiving both the Lyman T. Johnson Torch of Excellence Award and Dean’s Award for Excellence in Service. As a student, she co-chaired the diversity committee for the Joseph Hamburg Student Society. She has special interests in the elimination of health disparities and was able to complete nearly all her clerkships in primarily urban, rural, and/or underserved areas, including an OB/GYN and internal medicine rotation in Swaziland, Africa. Tiffany is passionate about helping others and has spent time volunteering as a caretaker with HIV/AIDS patients while in Lexington, as well as mentoring high school and college-aged women throughout Kentucky and locally in Baltimore, MD. She is not only interested in educating the upcoming generation of PAs but also equipping them with the tools and mindset they need to reach their fullest potential.
