Summary
Andrew Paterson is an experienced clinical professional and aspiring physician with 12 years of hands-on healthcare and engineering experience, currently working as a Medical Assistant II in a high-volume primary care clinic in Portsmouth, NH. He combines meticulous clinical skills—point-of-care testing, ECGs, medication reconciliation, and Medicare wellness workflows—with a background in engineering and data-driven problem solving from roles at GE Transportation and Pratt & Whitney. That blend of clinical care and technical rigor shows in his attention to systems: maintaining EHR chart prep, integrating outside records, and flagging preventive care gaps to improve outcomes. Previous emergency department experience at a Level I trauma center has honed his ability to perform under pressure and assist in acute procedures and resuscitations. He is pursuing a Bachelor of Nursing Science with plans to continue to medical school, bringing a rare cross-disciplinary perspective to patient care and process improvement. Based in Sanford, Maine, he pairs practical bedside competence with an engineer’s appetite for efficient workflows and measurable impact.
