Mackenzie Kauffman, PA-C is a Board-Certified Physician Assistant through the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA), specializing in dermatology. She joined our team as a Physician Assistant (PA) in February 2023. Mackenzie was raised in Goshen, Indiana, and graduated from Northridge High School. She is excited to be back in her hometown, caring for members of the community. She attended Indiana University Bloomington, where she majored in English. While attending IU, Mackenzie worked as a CNA and also spent two summers working at our Elkhart and Goshen offices as a scribe. Mackenzie earned her Master's in Physician Assistant Studies from South College in Knoxville, TN, and during this time, she completed an elective clinical rotation at our Elkhart office.

Mackenzie first found her passion for dermatology after struggling with acne as a teenager and experiencing firsthand the difference proper treatment can make in one's self-confidence. Mackenzie hopes to help her patients feel comfortable and confident in their own skin through skin cancer screening exams and the treatment of an array of skin conditions.

When she's not at the office, Mackenzie enjoys traveling, trying new recipes, and spending time with her family and her yellow lab, Parker. Mackenzie looks forward to caring for both new and established patients.
