Bio
Frederick Purnell grew up in a rural area that lacked easy access to healthcare and recognized how important regular care is to quality of life. This early experience influenced his decision to pursue a career in medicine.
Frederick earned his bachelor’s degree in athletic training at Salisbury University in Maryland. He went on to earn a master’s degree in health promotion from Virginia Tech University in Blacksburg in 2011 before going to work with members of the Seattle Mariners and Baltimore Ravens athletic teams. He also spent six years working with athletes at Virginia Tech University.
Frederick returned to the classroom in 2018. He earned his Master of Physician Assistant from Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk before becoming certified as a physician assistant in 2021. His areas of special focus include comprehensive preventative medicine and the treatment of orthopedic injuries and concerns. When not with his patients, Frederick enjoys working out, watching and attending sporting events, and spending time with family.
