Nicole Peterson, PA-C, has started her career as a provider with Premier Oncology Hematology in hopes of making a meaningful difference in the lives of others. She is grateful to work with and have strong mentorship with the exceptional Premier Oncology Hematology team. Knowing what it is like to be a regularly-seen patient, she wanted to be the one on the other side of this scenario providing the knowledge, listening ear, and comfort to those that may need it. To achieve this, Nicole was a direct admit to Valparaiso University’s 5-year accelerated physician assistant program where she graduated with distinction and participated in several volunteer opportunities, such as facilitating a toy drive for Riley Children’s Hospital and volunteering her time at the local soup kitchen called Café Manna. To further her education, she continues to partake in oncology and hematology conferences and regularly reads current literature to advance her practice. She strongly believes that in a positive, kind, and collaborative clinical environment, like the one at Premier, patients receive the best quality of care and attention to their own specific needs.
