The William and Loretta Harris Department of PA Studies

Thank you for your interest in the Wingate University Physician Assistant Program. For more than 115 years, Wingate has been at the forefront of developing leaders in all fields by focusing on providing an excellent education and a more complete understanding of life.

The Wingate University Physician Assistant Program is a pioneer in many areas, starting with our focus on relationship-centered professionalism that begins in the classroom and transitions to patient-centered care in the clinical world.  Additionally, the learning experience is enhanced through group activities along with sessions specifically directed toward clinical case problem-solving and acquisition of lifelong inquiry and learning skills.

The Levine College of Health Sciences building has been completed and we are excited to begin delivering instruction in that facility for the class of 2013.  This three story, 63,000 square foot state-of-the-art building houses both the Physician Assistant Program and the Wingate University School of Pharmacy.  Building facilities are designed to provide the latest in learning technologies along with clinical practice areas designed to enhance skills development in a realistic environment.

From a clinical learning perspective, the Wingate University Physician Assistant Program has myriad opportunities in the Charlotte metropolitan area.  Our location allows students to receive clinical education in a variety of settings, ranging from an extremely busy Level I Trauma Center to suburban and rural practices where the providers know patients and families by name.  In fact, we have over 175 clinical rotation sites, offering excellent experiences for both required rotations and electives.

Graduates from our program will be able to:

·         Deliver effective and efficient patient-centered care, focusing on quality, safety, and continuous improvement

·         Think analytically and conduct their practice at the highest ethical level

·         Readily integrate and apply evidence-based biomedical sciences while remaining sensitive to cultural differences and needs of their patients

·         Communicate and collaborate with patients and others to achieve the best healthcare situation

Again, thank you for your interest in our program and we hope that you will consider applying through the CASPA system.
