Johanna Salazar, PA

I was born in Quito, Ecuador, and moved to the United States with my parents when I was one. They came in pursuit of achieving the American dream. 

Thanks to their determination, and some hard work, I was able to do just that. I obtained my Bachelors in Health Science, Pre Clinical at the University of Central Florida. Shortly after, I moved to NY for PA school and attend the New York Institute of Technology to become a certified PA.

I decided to go into medicine because I wanted to be able to use my skills, compassion, and knowledge to impact the health of my community. I am passionate about helping others have a good experience in their personal health care.

A good day at work for me means that I have been able to make an impact in someone's health. I love when my patients feel they have been taken care of and that there is progress. I get so excited to see progress and growth in the right direction.

I want you to know that at Sanitas we aim to provide the highest quality of care, by putting the patient first and listening to their needs. We always use evidence-based medicine to provide accurate diagnosis and treatment.

When I take off my white coat, I love to enjoy my spare time reading, hiking, exercising and traveling. I especially love spending time with my loved ones.
