The Medical Clinic at U.S. Army Proving Ground (YPG) would like to introduce Capt. Emily Carmody as its new physician assistant (PA).
Carmody comes to YPG from Fort Campbell, Ky. where she worked as a PA for Division Headquarters with similar patient empanelment, she’ll care for here, at YPG. Carmody will serve the YPG community for the next three years and brings a wealth of experience in women’s health services.
Prior to her arrival in October, there was a gap in provider care, causing many patients to seek care outside of the clinic. She hopes to get the patients back on track with their medical needs.
“I want to provide accessible, good healthcare for the community.”
Carmody is familiar with Army life. “I was an Army brat growing up,” she remarks, noting that joining the Army is a family tradition. Her father retired from the Army and her sister recently served.
Another fairly new face at the clinic is Sgt. 1st Class Joseph Siwemuke. He serves as the Clinical NCOIC where he manages the Soldiers and ensures the facility is running as it should.
“I hope to continue to provide access to care for the community, so they have a place for medications, pharmacy or occupations help.”
He joined the team in the summer of 2024 and is excited to be here with his family.
“It brings me back closer to home, I am originally from Sierra Vista, Ariz. I love the desert community and the weather because I ride motorcycles.”
In his 18-years in the Army, Siwemuke has served in Washington, Pennsylvania, Germany, California, Georgia, and Italy. For the next three years YPG will be his duty station, and he hopes to retire after this assignment.
In case you are having trouble pronouncing his name as many do, he explained its phonetically pronounced, see-we-moo-key.
