Terry Larimer, PA-C

Practice philosophy: My philosophy is that of teamwork with all parties involved. I like to present options available and provide information to help make the most appropriate and comfortable plan with each patient.

What are you passionate about and why? I am passionate about connecting with patients and try to make our time together as positive as I can. I feel strongly that a team decision is the best way to get great outcomes.

If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? Veterinarian

Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? When I was younger I kept getting hurt playing sports, so I was comfortable early on with health care and envisioned some sort of health career from the time I was 12!

What is something you have learned from your patients? I have learned that most people are willing and active participants in their health if you can make them comfortable and share decisions with them.

What is one of the challenges of this career you enjoy? And why? Helping to solve the mystery each patient has to offer!

What is your personal health goal? Stay as active as you can for as long as you can!

What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? Never stop moving.

What are you most proud of? My relationship with my wife, my kids, and my parents.

What are a few of your personal achievements? My wife and I were able to raise four children together while going to school and even have fun doing it!
