“My favorite thing about Woodlawn is the staff. They are all so kind, caring, and always smiling,” she said.
Orze holds a bachelor’s degree in biology from Ball State University's Honors College. She then attended Franklin University and graduated with a degree in physician assistant studies. In 2024, she came to work for Woodlawn in family medicine.
When choosing a specialty, family medicine is a perfect fit.
“I love seeing patients of any age, from all walks of life. I want to build close relationships with my patients and get to know them as people, caring for them physically, mentally and emotionally,” she said.
When she is not caring for patients, Orze enjoys fishing, hiking with her dogs, reading and trying new restaurants.
