Sarah Thibodeau is a certified Physician Assistant who is from the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. She graduated from Virginia Tech with bachelor’s degrees in nutrition and psychology. She subsequently worked as a pediatric clinical dietitian at Duke University Hospital. Sarah has worked in almost every pediatric specialty as a dietitian but spent the majority of her time in pediatric abdominal transplant and the step-down NICU. After three years at Duke, she decided to go back to school to become a Physician Assistant. She graduated from Emory University, one of the top Physician Assistant programs in the United States, with a Master’s in Medical Sciences. Her attention to detail, compassionate care, and academic excellence have always made her a standout in her academic and professional pursuits. Sarah not only enjoys assisting in surgery but also making sure patients and their families know what is to be expected along their surgical journey. She is excited to be a part of the Alaska Facial Plastic Surgery and ENT team!
