Meet Hector De Pena III, PA
Hector De Pena, PA-C, assists Paul Schmitt, M.D., to address your neurosurgery needs. He is passionate about preoperative and postoperative care, neurotrauma, patient and family education. His dedication ensures that you receive high-quality, patient-centered care, providing the best possible outcomes and support throughout your treatment journey.
He holds a Master of Physician Assistant Studies from The University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth, TX, and a Bachelor of Applied Science from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi in Corpus Christi, TX.
He believes, "Every patient needs to be heard and their desires understood. It's important to me that my patients understand their pathology and all their options. Taking the time to sit down with patients and get to know them as a person, and not simply what they're in my office for, helps build that relationship and trust that is so important when facing medical decisions together. My approach to medicine and patient care is centered around trust, openness, personal connection, and education."
Outside of work, Hector enjoys camping, surfing, hiking, and rock climbing. Rest assured, you are in skilled and caring hands with Hector and the CHRISTUS Trinity Clinic team.
