We are extremely proud to announce Dr. Hilary Wilson, DPT Clinical Director for the Stephens College Physician Assistant Program, was awarded the Graduate Faculty Service Award.

Dr. Wilson exemplifies the highest standards of service, leadership, and commitment to graduate education.

In her role as Clinical Director, Hilary has transformed the clinical phase of our program through her exceptional relationship‑building with preceptors, her meticulous oversight of rotation quality, and her unwavering dedication to student success.

She consistently goes above and beyond—supporting students through individualized guidance, strengthening clinical partnerships across Missouri, and ensuring our curriculum remains rigorous, equitable, and aligned with ARC-PA standards.

Dr. Wilson's service extends far beyond her formal responsibilities. She is a trusted mentor to students, a steady advocate for the PA profession, and a collaborative leader. Her professionalism, compassion, and integrity make her an invaluable member of our graduate faculty and a model for what outstanding service truly looks like.
