Peyton Gruber, PA-C

I have been a board-certified physician assistant since 2022, when I graduated from the Augusta University Physician Assistant Program. I joined Welcome Health in September 2025. I initially practiced medicine as a PA in the Emergency Department for the first three years of my career but recently felt a calling to do something different—helping to prevent emergent conditions from happening in the first place. I am also looking forward to developing and maintaining relationships with my patients and having the time to truly listen to them. My first exposure to direct primary care was during a clinical rotation with Davis Mellick. It immediately struck me as a wonderful way to provide patient care to a community without the restrictions of conventional primary care. When the opportunity arose to join the practice, I took it! A little about me: I am originally from Savannah, GA. I have been married to my husband for five years. We moved to Augusta for my PA program and have since enjoyed making Augusta our home. In my free time, I can be found working out at the gym, cooking at home, or reading in my favorite chair.
