Dena Pruitt is a physician assistant practicing alongside the orthopedic surgeons in the Spine and Trauma Clinics at Harborview. She earned her Master's degree in Health Sciences and Physician Assistant studies at The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Her interest in orthopedics began as an undergraduate as she earned her bachelor's degree in kinesiology and athletic training.
