Maia Gala graduated from the University of New England in 2012 with a master’s degree in medicine. She has been serving the community for over a decade but joined Jamestown Family Health Clinic in 2020 as a Certified Physician’s Assistant. Maia is committed to providing quality, compassionate care, and was drawn to working for Jamestown because she believes the tribe also exhibits those values. She also appreciates the way the tribe takes care of their staff, and employs a positive, helpful and kind group of people. In her practice, Maia has an interest in geriatrics, specifically working with people on improving and maintaining positive lifestyle practices (nutrition, exercise etc.) which may lead to less chronic diseases and need for medications.  When Maia is not working, she enjoys the great outdoors and spending time with her two sons as well as her animals which include goats, chickens and ducks.
