Jennie Skursky, PA-C

Jennie Skursky is a board-certified Physician Assistant who primarily works with Dr. Rikesh Gandhi. She graduated from Marywood University with a Master of Physician Assistant Studies in 2023. Though born in New Jersey, she grew up in the small town of Exeter, Pennsylvania. In high school, she was captain of her cheerleading team, excelled in weightlifting competitions, and was an avid runner. However, her athletic pursuits took a toll on her body, leading her to attend physical therapy, which sparked a deep interest in orthopedics. This personal journey and her innate desire to help others led her to specialize in orthopedic medicine.

Jennie is a proud alumnus of the Pennsylvania State University with a B.S. in Biology and a minor in Sociology. She actively contributed to the medical field during her time at Penn State. As a member of the Student National Medical Association (SNMA) and the American Medical Student Association (AMSA), she promoted diversity in healthcare. Her experience working in a Senior Living Facility in the Assisted Living and Dementia Unit honed her ability to connect with patients. Jennie furthered her medical expertise as a phlebotomist before attending PA school. She is currently an active member of the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA). In her spare time, she enjoys hiking, traveling, spending time with family and friends, and caring for her cats.
