About Me

Ryan Collins is a board-certified physician assistant with clinical interests in lung cancer. He received his bachelor’s degree in human biology and master’s degree in physiology from North Carolina State University. After completing his master’s degree in physician assistant studies from Methodist University in Fayetteville, Collins and his wife decided to stay in the area.

Collins always had an interest in medicine and wanted to have a meaningful impact on people's lives. With several family members impacted by cancer, Collins decided to pursue physician assistant studies and completed a rotation at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Extremely moved by this experience, Collins decided to pursue oncology as a career.

Collins enjoys the relationships he makes with his patients and the teamwork approach to care ensuring patients receive the best care and experience possible. Collins enjoys spending his spare time with his wife and their dog, Theo, enjoying the outdoors and sporting events.
