A western Chicago suburbs native, Jamie joined Fox Valley Orthopedics in early 2024, partnering with Dr. James Sostak to care for patients dealing with shoulder, hip, and knee conditions. After earning her master’s degree at Northwestern Medicine Feinberg School of Medicine, she began practicing orthopedics in 2022. As a board-certified physician assistant, Jamie evaluates patients independently in the clinic, manages diagnostic imaging, and assists Dr. Sostak in surgery.
