Serrina Nasrollahi

I am a dedicated and compassionate Physician Assistant student with a strong commitment to serving my hometown of Las Vegas. I am currently pursuing a Master’s of Physician Assistant Studies (MPAS) at Touro University Nevada, Henderson, and will soon complete my Master's of Public Health (MPH) in Epidemiology & Biostatistics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas later this year. Proudly, I bring a unique perspective to medicine that integrates clinical medicine, public health, and behavioral health. I have gained extensive experience in medical specialties such as rheumatology, family medicine, psychiatry, dermatology, and vascular surgery through my clinical rotations. My background as a child behavior therapist and trainer in applied behavior analysis (ABA) has equipped me with the skills to navigate the complexities of child neurodevelopmental conditions and behavioral challenges while simultaneously advocating for underserved families with diminished access to care. My additional experience as a medical scribe in general surgery, along with extensive leadership and research experience in nonprofit development and practice, has reinforced my experience with our local Las Vegas community. My goal is to be a PA-C that provides patient-centered, holistic care while improving health outcomes in the very place I have always called home.
