Heather G Matthews, PA

I chose to become a physician assistant due to a life-long interest in the healthcare field. I want to serve as a physician assistant to give back to my community that has given so much to me. I believe that patients should be well-informed of all aspects of their conditions, treatment options and their health. Patients should be involved in decision-making to the best of their ability. My clinical interests include: contraception, education, prenatal care and women's health education. Outside of work, I like to spend time with my family, read, golf and paint.

I am an eastern North Carolina native growing up in Snow Hill as well as playing American Legion Baseball for Kinston Post 43, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to come back and work close to home. I enjoy all aspects of orthopedics, but my passion is sports medicine. I am a big believer in patient education, and I enjoy helping patients achieve their goals. Outside of work, I enjoy playing golf and spending time with my fiance, Cara Beth, and our friends and families. I am excited to be joining the UNC Orthopedic family!
