James Piotrowski, PAC

In addition to our physicians, the Spine & Brain Center utilizes the expertise and experience of licensed Physician Assistants, allowing us to expedite appointments. A Physician Assistant or “PA” is a healthcare professional that practices medicine as part of a healthcare team with collaborating physicians. They undergo rigorous medical training, must graduate from an accredited PA program and pass a national certification exam. PA’s are trained to diagnose and treat patients. Our PA’s are also trained to assist in all surgical procedures as well as manage all post operative patients.

James Piotrowski, PA-C joined Spine & Brain Neurosurgery Center in 2015. Jim earned his Bachelor and PA degrees from Hahnemann Medical College in Philadelphia, PA and a Master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University. He has been working in a neurosurgical setting since 1983. He is a member of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Florida Academy of Physician Assistants. He was a founding member and past President of The Association of Neurosurgical Physician Assistants. Jim was one of the first Physician Assistants to have membership in the American Association of Neurological Surgeons. Jim is also a proud Veteran, serving in the United States Navy from 1969-1973.
