Rory McDonough is a Florida-native who is uncommonly trained in both general dermatology and plastic surgery. After earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from UNF, Rory went on to earn his Master’s degree in Physician Assistant Studies from the University of Florida.

During his studies, Rory became a member of the Florida Academy of Physician Assistants, where he’s contributed to the effort of providing quality PA care throughout the state of Florida. He is also a member of the Society of Dermatologic Physician Assistants where he stays up to date on current medical practices.

Rory joined the then-budding Riverchase practice in 2011. While helping grow the practice, he has since specialized in routine skin exams, surgical excisions, and surgical reconstruction of Mohs defects.

He is committed to community outreach programs, providing free skin screenings to the public, and advocating for skin wellness. He volunteers his time and expertise in the surgical training of PA’s, Nurse Practitioners, and medical students in statewide conferences, hospital, and university settings.

In his free time, he enjoys playing music, cooking, carpentry, and family-fun in the Florida shade. Rory comes from deep family roots of medical practitioners and is thankful to carry on the tradition of quality patient care here in Southwest Florida.
