Michaela Murphy, PA-C, is a certified physician assistant (PA) licensed to practice in Virginia and Maryland.
Originally from Western New York, Michaela earned her Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Physician Assistant Studies from Rochester Institute of Technology, graduating in 2020. Before becoming a PA, she worked as a radiologic technologist, where she developed a strong foundation in imaging and a passion for musculoskeletal health—a natural segue into orthopedics.
Michaela brings a patient-centered approach and a detail-oriented clinical background to The Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Center. Her experience in both radiology and advanced practice medicine allows her to provide comprehensive, efficient, and compassionate care to patients navigating foot and ankle injuries.
Outside of work, Michaela enjoys exploring the local food scene with her husband, being a Buffalo Bills fan, traveling, spending time with their two cats, and being on the water.
