Physician Assistant, wound care lead
Priya Deshmukh, PA-C
If the repair hurts, the patient remembers the repair. If it does not, they remember the scar, and I can control that.
About Priya
Priya trains every new clinician in the group on wound repair, from anaesthetic selection to the difference between a simple interrupted stitch and a vertical mattress on a gaping edge.
She is a firm believer that pain control is the whole visit for a child, and she introduced the topical LET protocol that lets us close a lot of small facial and scalp wounds without an injection.
She takes the group's complex dressing follow-ups and runs the suture-removal clinic that is open to anyone, including people whose stitches were placed elsewhere.
