About Benjamin Fontaine, PA-C

1 year Berkshire resident

I am an Adult Rheumatology Physician Assistant with a Masters of Physician Assistant Studies (MSPAS) degree. Have also completed the Advanced Rheumatology course through the American College of Rheumatology.

I enjoy working with the patient as an individual and encouraging them to become active participants in their care. I focus on patient education to help develop an understanding of their diagnosis and treatment options.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and 3 dogs. My hobbies include exploring the outdoors (even in the cold New England weather), traveling, and enjoying the cinema.
