About Amanda
Amanda Skipworth is a physician assistant who sees patients of all ages at the Bluffton, South Carolina office. She completed the Physician Assistant program at Bethel University in Tennessee. Years of volunteer and clinical work before and during her training shaped the partnership model of care she practices today.
Skipworth provides psychiatric evaluation and medication management for children, teens, adults, and older adults, which is uncommon in a single provider and valuable in a community where families, retirees, and the hospitality workforce all need care. She treats the common conditions that bring people to psychiatry, including anxiety, depression, attention difficulties, and the mood changes that follow stress, loss, or illness.
Her focus is on the whole person: physical health, family, work, and the routines that support or undermine recovery. She explains her reasoning, invites questions, and treats the patient as a partner in decisions rather than a passive recipient. She is accepting new patients, and established patients can use telehealth for follow-up visits anywhere in South Carolina. The Sheridan Park office off US-278 serves Bluffton, Okatie, Hardeeville, Sun City, and Hilton Head Island, and it is a short drive from I-95 exit 8.
Care philosophy
Skipworth practices partnership: the patient is a full participant, and the whole person is the subject of care.
