Laura Humphrey is a certified Physician Assistant who has been working with Dr. Burns’ team since 2022. Originally from Cerritos in Southern California, she earned her bachelor’s degree in Biological Sciences from the University of California Irvine. While at UC Irvine, she participated in multiple outreach programs including a medical outreach mission to the Dominican Republic through a student run organization called International Medicine Education and Development. She then moved to Saint Louis in 2018 for graduate school at Saint Louis University. While at SLU, she earned her Masters in Medical Science to become a Physician Assistant as well as a Masters in Public Health. While in public health, she worked in infection prevention where she collaborated with the Infection Prevention team to investigate and help prevent surgical site infections. With her medical and public health education alongside her interest in orthopedic surgery, she then rotated at Depaul Hospital as a PA student in 2022 where she became familiar with the team. Dr. Burns and her team recruited her immediately out of training, and soon after she joined SSM DePaul Orthopedics.
