Mark Overas, MMSc, PA-C
I was raised in Connecticut, but spent the majority of my life in Alaska. I have a BS Cell and Molecular Biology from the University of Washington and a Master of Medical Science from Yale University School of Medicine.  I participated in the Graduate and Physician Associate Program at Yale University. I received the Leadership Award from the Student Academy of the American Academy of Physician Assistants, May 2002, for work in delivering recovered medical supplies to Cambodia.  I was a Founding Board Member of REMEDY-SA,  the student association of REMEDY (Recovered Medical Equipment for the Developing World).  Through REMEDY, I periodically conduct needs-assessment tours of developing nations, and organize the collection and delivery of medical supplies from US institutions to these overseas sites.

My personal interests focus mainly on the outdoors: I count climbing, hiking, biking, and skiing among my favorite activities.
