Callie Skinner
Physician Assistant
My name is Callaway (Callie) Skinner. I was born and raised in Statesboro, Georgia. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, Judd Skinner, who is the Market President at Colony Bank. We have a 3 1/2 year old son named Anderson who is the light of our lives.
For undergrad, I attended Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, Georgia from August 2006 to December 2010. I obtained my BS degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I then attended The Medical College of Georgia (now Augusta University) for PA school from May 2012 to August 2014. I’ve been a PA since 2014 and have worked in pediatrics, primary care, women’s health, and most recently ENT with Dr. Lincoln Lippincott since December 2021.
Fun fact: ENT was my least favorite section of my didactic year in PA school and now I couldn’t imagine working in any other specialty. I love being a PA and I take special interest in patient education. I feel that is one of the most, if not the most important part of a visit. I’m very thankful for my career and the journey it has and continues to take me on! I am very happy to be part of the Statesboro ENT team!
