Joseph P. Shinnick, PA
Overview
I am a physician assistant who works in orthopaedics. I mainly see patients with hand injuries, hand pain, elbow and shoulder injuries. However, I’ve been a physician assistant for over twenty years, and during that time, I’ve also treated many patients with more general orthopaedic issues. I am a pretty low-key person who prefers to listen to patients during visits. Then, I like to confirm my initial diagnosis with any tests or x-rays and work with the patient to come up with a treatment plan. I worked in a hospital setting where physician assistants had a huge role, and my experience there inspired me to pursue my career path. While I was in physician assistant school, I had a mentor who specialized in orthopaedics. I found that I enjoyed the specialty too and haven’t looked back since. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family being, active outdoors and playing sports.

I have the opportunity to help restore function and allow patients to resume what they want and need to do. Some patients just need to understand their condition, while others may benefit from therapy or surgery. I treat conditions in the upper extremity, from the elbow to the hand. This includes common conditions, such as fractures, dislocations, and ligament injuries of the hand, wrist, or forearm. I also treat nerve compressions in the wrist or elbow, such as carpal tunnel syndrome or cubital tunnel syndrome, arthritis of the thumb, hand, and wrist, and tendonitis. I also see patients of all ages for less common conditions, such as vascular disorders and developmental and acquired conditions. Outside of work, I enjoy sports and spending time with my family.
