Jamie Richards

I grew up in the Rochester area and was a student at Victor Central Schools grades K-12! I spent a lot of time in hospitals growing up as my parents were both cancer patients. I always admired the health care workers who collaborated to take such great care of my loved ones and a career in medicine felt like a perfect fit for me. I attended Hobart and William Smith where I received a Bachelors in Biology. I went on to obtain my Masters in Physician Assistant Studies at LeMoyne College in Syracuse. I finished my Masters in 2014 and returned to the area for my first job as a PA at URMC in Hematology/Oncology. I transitioned from the inpatient Heme-Onc world for a role in pediatric primary care in Watertown, NY where I fell in love with the specialty. I moved back to the area in the fall of 2019 to be closer to family and join the Panorama Pediatric Group! I live in Canandaigua with my husband and English Bulldog named Thomas. I love antiquing, reading, cooking, and traveling!
