Erin Meslar, PA| Transplant Surgery | MedStar Health
About me
Erin has been a clinical PA in HPB surgery with MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute for 12 years, managing patients from diagnosis through surgery and postoperative care. She has extensive experience with a wide range of HPB conditions, including liver disease, benign and malignant liver masses, bile duct conditions and cancers, benign and malignant pancreatic lesions, abdominal masses, and metastatic diseases of the liver and pancreas.
She is board certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants.
Erin encourages open, compassionate communication with patients. She takes time to educate them about their condition and treatment options and makes sure they know what to expect during recovery from surgery, providing support throughout the process of diagnosis and treatment.
When she’s not working, Erin enjoys spending time with family and friends, playing sports, taking part in outdoor activities, going to concerts, and traveling.
