Paula Ardila, PA

I'm happy to be a physician assistant at Sanitas, where we've implemented a system that ensures the delivery of the highest quality care possible for my patients. They can feel comfortable speaking with me in either Spanish or English. A good day at work means collaborating with my patients to create a treatment plan tailored to their health needs. 

I was born in Bogota, Colombia, and moved to the United States when I was 8 years old. I've grown up in and come to love the diverse communities of South Florida. During my undergraduate studies, I lived in Tallahassee for five years before moving to Fort Meyers to continue my graduate studies. I decided to go into medicine because I want to make a positive impact in our communities by optimizing my patient’s quality of life. I'm very passionate about preventive health care and holistic approaches to improve the fitness and condition of my patients’ body and mind.

When I take off my coat, I like to reflect on the day and appreciate the opportunity I had to meet and serve my patients for that day.
