Josef Burwell, MS, PA-C

Josef is the founding director of Peacework Medical, a non profit primary clinic in Phoenix that offers free care to the Latinx transgender, gender non conforming, and gay and lesbian community who are uninsured due to their documentation status. As a transgender man, he is acutely aware of the need for accessible, equitable health care for all. A PA since 1994, and a veteran of the U.S. Army, Josef has worked providing emergency and primary care in 10 impoverished countries in the past 22 years, including professionally for the U.S. Dept of State, the Navajo Nation, Alaskan First Native villages, and as a volunteer with Peacework Medical teams. He regularly speaks to primary care clinicians and future clinicians on the basics of gender hormone care and mentors PAs in pursuing their professional goals.
