Our Staff
Tom, Physician Assistant
While completing his undergraduate degree at the University of Florida, Tom came to Colorado for an internship at the University of Denver. He was quickly captivated by the outdoor activities Colorado has to offer and decided to further his education here. After graduating from a Physician Assistant program, Tom started his career in orthopedics where he worked for the last 20+ years. As an orthopedic PA, he developed extensive knowledge & surgical experience working closely with patients. Prior to orthopedics and during his clinical years, he was introduced to plastic surgery and aesthetics, which is where his interest in this field grew. He is extremely excited about the transition into plastic surgery and looks forward to working alongside Dr. Ladner and his amazing team. Outside of work, Tom loves spending time outdoors with his son mountain biking, snowboarding, and fly fishing.
