Alicia Allman, PA-C
Hablo Español
Alicia earned her Master of Science Degree with honors from the Medical University of South Carolina in 2013. Her journey into patient care started at a young age when she became acutely aware of the health challenges that face the Latin community. Alicia was born in Charlotte and raised in a Honduran household where she was taught how to speak, read, and write in both English and Spanish fluently. As a child, she quickly identified the need to bridge the communication gap between Spanish speakers and their healthcare needs. Alicia’s desire to assist the Hispanic community, along with her unique skill set, makes her the perfect provider to serve the medical needs of every Hispanic patient that walks through our doors.
