Board-Certified Physician Assistant and Clinical Educator
Randi graduated from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UT Southwestern) in Dallas in 1997.
After graduating, she began working with Drs. Mark Anderson and Walter Gaman. She has also served as a clinical educator and preceptor for the physician assistant program at UT Southwestern, helping students apply their training in patient care.
Those experiences inform the way she practices today.
Randi listens closely, explains her recommendations, and welcomes questions. Whether a patient is discussing an ongoing health concern or exploring a new service, she wants them to understand their options and feel involved in the decisions ahead.
Education, Training, and Credentials
UT Southwestern Medical Center Physician Assistant Program
Randi completed her physician assistant education at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas in 1997. Her subsequent work in family medicine has given her experience caring for patients with a range of health needs.
Her role as a clinical educator and preceptor for the UT Southwestern physician assistant program reflects another part of her career: supporting future PAs as they develop their clinical skills.
PA-C Certification
The PA-C designation identifies a physician assistant who holds national board certification. For Randi’s patients, her certification is one part of a broader clinical background that includes decades in family medicine, patient education, and preventive care.
Randi approaches appointments as conversations. She reviews the concern that brought a patient in, considers the wider picture of their health, and makes room for the questions that often come up once someone has had time to think.
What Is a PA-C? The Collaborative Care Model
A physician assistant is a licensed medical professional trained to evaluate patients, diagnose and treat conditions, develop care plans, order tests, prescribe medications, and provide preventive counseling within their scope of practice. A PA’s responsibilities depend on their training, experience, practice setting, and applicable law.
The PA-C credential indicates national board certification. PA training follows a medical model that includes classroom education and supervised clinical experience. Physicians complete a different training path, including medical school and residency; the two roles bring distinct expertise to a care team.
At EMTX, Randi practices within a team of physicians and other providers. That collaborative approach allows patients’ concerns to be considered across services while keeping recommendations connected to their overall health goals.
Clinical Interests and Areas of Focus
Randi’s background in family medicine shapes how she approaches each clinical interest. A question about skin, energy, or prevention may lead to a broader conversation about medical history, daily habits, and what a patient hopes to address.
Dermatology and Aesthetics
Skin concerns and aesthetic goals are personal. Randi’s interests in dermatology and aesthetics allow her to discuss these concerns with patients and help identify appropriate next steps.
She is among the EMTX providers who perform injectables, including Botox, Dysport, fillers, and Sculptra.
An aesthetic consultation should leave room to discuss the patient’s goals, the proposed treatment, expected results, and potential risks. Randi can help patients consider whether an option fits their needs without rushing that decision.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Changes in sleep, energy, or other aspects of well-being can have more than one possible cause. Randi’s interest in BHRT begins with understanding a patient’s symptoms and considering them in the context of their medical history.
She can discuss hormone evaluation and the treatment options offered at EMTX. When BHRT is considered, the conversation should include potential benefits, risks, alternatives, and follow-up needs. Treatment is recommended only when clinically appropriate for the individual patient.

Disease Prevention and Wellness
Randi believes patients deserve time to talk about their health before a concern becomes harder to manage.
Her interest in disease prevention includes helping people understand their health history, discuss risk factors, and identify practical next steps.
Depending on a patient’s needs, that conversation may include screening, nutrition, lifestyle habits, or follow-up care.
EMTX also offers executive physical exams for those seeking a detailed assessment of their health. An executive physical can be purchased without joining a concierge program; ongoing primary care requires enrollment in a concierge program.
Randi’s work as a functional nutrition counselor adds another perspective to these conversations. She can help patients consider how nutrition fits into their wider care strategy without treating one test result or one habit as the whole story.
The Collaborative PA–Physician Model at EMTX
Patients often bring more than one goal to an appointment. Someone seeking preventive care may also have questions about nutrition, hormone symptoms, or an aesthetic treatment.
At EMTX, Randi works within a team that can consider those concerns together and coordinate the next appropriate step.
That may mean discussing findings with an EMTX physician, connecting a patient with another provider, or considering a related service. Peptide therapy, for example, may be discussed when relevant, but a provider determines whether any treatment is appropriate after an individual evaluation.
For patients enrolled in an EMTX concierge program, this team-based approach sits alongside ongoing primary care and the detailed annual executive physician exam included with every concierge program.
Concierge patients also have direct provider access by phone, text, email, and secure portal messaging. Responses are based on urgency, with urgent needs addressed as quickly as needed and most non-urgent questions answered within a few hours.
Randi’s role is to help patients feel heard and informed within that broader care relationship. She does not rush appointments and takes time to answer questions about a condition, a recommendation, or what comes next.
Personal Interests
Outside the office, Randi enjoys time with her husband and their two children. She attends her children’s educational and sporting competitions, volunteers at school events, and enjoys outdoor activities with her husband.
