PA Program, Louisiana State University HSC at New Orleans

A very exciting start to the summer semester for the class of 2028! 🦞🥼🩺

And with that, the LSU PA Class of 2026 has officially graduated🎓🎉

Through the long days, late nights, endless studying, rotations, and every challenge in between, they made it to the finish line. This journey has taken hard work, resilience, dedication, and a whole lot of support from the people who helped carry us through.

Join us in congratulating the Class of 2026! We are so proud of everything this class has accomplished and can’t wait to see the incredible impact each of you will make as PA-Cs. Wishing everyone the best of luck as you begin this next chapter!

First year anatomy is complete! ✔️
This semester was filled with countless opportunities for hands-on learning in both lecture and lab for our first years. Huge thank you to Dr. G for making this experience unforgettable for the Class of 2028! 🫀💛

A moment to celebrate the last week of didactic for the class of ’27!!!🤩🙌🏼🎉 So much hard work and perseverance has been poured into this last year and a half, and we can’t wait to celebrate together as we earn our white coats this week 🤍

One week until white coat for our second years!!!!🥼🥼

And our clinical schedules are in-we can’t wait to start rotations and continue along the path to becoming PAs, but sad to see our time in the classroom together coming to an end!

Wrapping it up!!!🩻🦴💪

The class of 2027 is heading into their last two weeks of didactic! We’ve been working on all of our clinical skills like splinting before heading off into the real world!🥼🩺💛

A moment to celebrate the Class of 2026 who presented their Capstone projects a little over a month ago! Capstone marks the final step in our training, bringing together our didactic and clinical experiences using research and evidence-based medicine to answer real-world clinical questions.

We also celebrated classmates inducted into Pi Alpha Honor Society and Alpha Eta Society, our class officers, and (last, but not least) honored Dr. George Hebert for his years of dedication to our PA program and the lasting impact he’s had on all of us as he closes out an incredible legacy.

Until next time… 3 weeks until graduation 🎓

Keeping it sterile🧽🫧🧤The second years have been busy this semester preparing our skills for clinicals in just a few months! We’re almost ready for the OR!!🏥

Back to school we go!!📚📝🤓 This week we welcomed 35 new faces to campus and the return of familiar faces after a well-earned winter break!

To the class of 2028, we are so grateful to have you here and welcome you into this journey that will challenge and shape you into amazing PAs! To the class of 2027, we are in the home stretch of didactic-keep pushing forward and making the most of our time together in the classroom!💜
