Edward McInerny is our Neurology and Sleep Medicine Physician Assistant. He’s worked closely with Dr. Izzo and Dr. Tisdell for 7 years and they have formed a close, trusting, and collaborative relationship. 

He completed his undergraduate work at the University of Massachusetts Amherst where he graduated cum laude with a double major in Microbiology and Biochemistry/Molecular biology. He also obtained a certificate in biotechnology.

After his undergraduate work he took a position as a sleep technologist performing overnight sleep studies, before attending PA school. He completed his Masters in Physician Assistant Studies at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences University in Worcester.

He has experience in both urgent care and primary care as well. This broad exposure to a wide array of medical conditions has allowed him to better understand and address patient’s medical needs and concerns.
