Brian Sinnott, PA-C, is a certified physician assistant with Providence Medical Group-Bridgeport Family Medicine. He previously worked in immunology research at Oregon Health Sciences University. He learned he’d rather provide care to people directly. Now, he enjoys sharing his knowledge with patients in order to support them through challenges and care for themselves well. “When patients fully understand their medical issues and options,” he says, “they are their own best advocates.” He earned a BS in biochemistry and computer science from Trinity College in Connecticut, an MS in biochemistry from Oregon State University, and an MS in Physician Assistant Studies from Idaho State University.
