Bio

Monica Fisher, MS, PA-C, has begun work as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physician Associates (PA) Studies.

Fisher has practiced as a PA in Kansas for over 25 years, since graduating from the Wichita State PA program. Before that, she taught high school biology for three years – with one year spent at Winfield High School. Education is one of her passions, and she looks forward to expanding her experience to the collegiate realm.

Most of Fisher’s clinical experience has been in primary care, while working in everything from rural ERs to urban safety-net clinics to suburban family practice clinics. Most recently she has devoted herself to her other passion, which is caring for patients who live with obesity. She plans to combine her two interests by continuing PRN practice at her weight management clinic while serving as a PA faculty member.

Fisher earned her BSEd in biology from Pittsburg State University before attending Wichita State University for a Physician Assistant degree in 1998. She then returned to Pittsburg State University to obtain an MS in Human Resources Development in 2016. She is excited to see where this journey in education leads!
