Jill Speca always knew she’d have a career helping people. At Great Plains Orthopaedics, she has the opportunity to do that every single day. She says that helping others progress to a specific goal leading to a healthier lifestyle and seeing the smile on their face when the pain is gone is a very rewarding experience.

In her role as a physician assistant, Mrs. Speca has a special interest in sports medicine. She conducts hospital rounds, assesses patients, provides assistance in all orthopaedic procedures including fracture care, and works with patients and physicians in a variety of other capacities.

Mrs. Speca is a member of the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) and has served as an assistant youth hockey coach. She and her husband have one daughter and three dogs. She enjoys Rivermen Hockey games, reading, scrapbooking – and of course, spending time with her family.
