Wesley Gretah, MSPA, BBA, PA-C
I joined the Jackie and Gene Autry Orthopedic Center at CHLA in 2017. I am part of the hip preservation and clubfoot programs. Before my tenure as a PA, I worked in the retail industry, managing vintage clothing and furniture stores in New York as part of my family business.
I began my undergraduate studies in medicine and eventually shifted towards a business path. In 2009, I had a personal experience with a family member diagnosed with clubfoot, sparking my interest and prompting my return to medicine.
After graduating from Keiser University's PA program, I immediately sought to help others with orthopedic needs, something that I hold close to my heart. Growing up, I was very active in sports and encountered my fair share of injuries. This eventually evolved into an interest in orthopedics, and in conjunction with my passion to help others, particularly children, I knew from the moment I wanted to be in medicine, that it would be pediatric orthopedics.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing and watching basketball, and collecting sports memorabilia.
