Tammy Frost, BS, MSPAS, PA-C: A Beacon of Hope for Rural Healthcare in Prescott, Arizona
Local Physician Assistant Combines Personal Resilience with Professional Dedication to Serve Underserved Communities
Tammy, a passionate Family Medicine Physician Assistant at GRACE Direct Primary Care, is making significant strides in enhancing healthcare access for underserved communities in rural Arizona. With an impressive academic background and a personal story of resilience, she is driven by a mission to provide exceptional medical care to those who need it most.
Tammy earned her Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies (MSPAS) from King’s College, which is renowned for its rigorous program that accepted only 12 graduate students out of 1,600 applicants the year she applied. Before pursuing her graduate studies, she graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from Northern Arizona University in 2000. Her dedication to health and education has made her a National Health Service Corps Scholar and recipient of the prestigious Gold Axe Award.
In her own words, Tammy reflects on her life-changing experience in 2008, when she faced a life-threatening tragedy. “I have asked myself why my life was spared. I am convinced that there is considerable work to accomplish in the medical field,” she states. This profound realization has fueled her commitment to provide compassionate healthcare, especially to those in vulnerable situations.
Throughout her academic journey, Tammy consistently excelled, graduating as valedictorian at every educational level, with a remarkable 3.97 GPA. Her commitment to helping others became evident during her time in home healthcare, where she discovered her passion for supporting individuals in need. This experience led her to further her education and become a Physician Assistant, focusing on rural healthcare.
“I am devoted to serving those most in need living in rural communities,” Tammy emphasizes. “People in underserved areas often do not receive the proper medical attention, and I am determined to personally make a difference.” She believes that quality healthcare should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their geographic location, echoing the sentiment of philosopher Lucius Annaeus Seneca: “A man who suffers before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary.”
When not advocating for her patients, Tammy enjoys spending quality time with family and friends and is currently exploring business opportunities aimed at enhancing patient care. Her unwavering dedication to improving healthcare accessibility makes her a true asset to the Prescott community and a beacon of hope for those she serves.
