I am excited to be back in my hometown practicing medicine and caring for my community. I grew up on the outskirts of Jim Thorpe, PA where my parents still reside and attended the Jim Thorpe Area School district. While in high school I was very active with the local fire/EMS community which is where I developed my love of medicine and community service.
I attended Binghamton University where I attained my BS in chemistry, followed by American University of The Caribbean where I earned my MD. I completed my specialty training in rural family medicine here at St. Luke’s University Health Network where I also served as Chief Resident. I was also fortunate enough to earn a fellowship designation in the field of Wilderness medicine.
I am particularly proud to be able to provide full spectrum and procedural care to this area. Given my training in rural medicine, I am comfortable providing care to all ages including newborns and am trained in a vast array of procedures.
In my spare time, I continue to volunteer with local fire/EMS/SAR teams where I hold a pre-hospital EMS physician certification and am an avid fisherman and outdoorsman.

“My visit with Dr. Plavin felt validating. He was able to help me with the return to work extension while my doctor was out. I would definitely continue to see him as an alternative to Dr. (Name) He was very comfortable to be around, came across as confident and knowledgeable about my medical history and the possibility of having epilepsy and going through menopause or hormone imbalances, and pursuing dietary and lifestyle changes to help manage the symptoms.”
