RE: Matthew Dean Hambleton #20080317740

To whom it may concern,

For the past six years I have volunteered to be the team physician for the Jackson High School Football team as

well as an advisor for the other sports. During this time period, I have had the opportunity to work with and get

to know Matthew Hambleton very well as the chief athletic trainer for Jackson High School. Two of my sons

were trained by and worked with Matthew as student athletic trainers during their last three years of high

school. My youngest son Zachary is studying exercise science and athletic training at Eastern Michigan

University as a direct result of meeting and working with Matthew.

Matthew is a very responsible, dedicated, honest and conscientious individual who is very concerned about the

health and welfare of the student athletes that he cares for. He knows his limitations and recognizes problems

that just don’t seem right from his point of view when evaluating the students. If he doesn’t know what is wrong

or has a concern, he doesn’t hesitate to call for advice and guidance or seek the appropriate care. In doing so

he is very humble and does not appear to be pretentious.

Matthew is very involved with the high school athletes and the student trainers as well as being creative and

innovative in order to have fun and stimulate their interests in athletic training. In 2006, Matthew developed and

organized the first annual countywide “student athletic trainer Olympics” for the Jackson area high schools.

Matthew is very compassionate and understanding of the student’s plight when evaluating, treating and

discussing their injury with them and their parents. Often these situations can be very problematic especially

when the athlete is a star player. I have been very impressed with how well Matthew maintains his integrity and

credibility as an athletic trainer in sticking to what is appropriate and limiting the athlete’s ability to return to

play so as not to permanently injure or disable the student.

In the past twenty five years, I have worked both in academic and community medicine. I have worked training

and teaching, medical students, residents, physician assistant students, nurses, paramedics and EMTs. In my

opinion, Matthew Hambleton will make an excellent physician assistant. Any program would be proud to

graduate him and any community or medical practice would be very fortunate to recruit him. Matthew is very

involved in the community where he lives as evidenced by all of the activities enumerated in his curriculum

vitae. I highly recommend without any reservations that you accept Matthew Hambleton into your Physician

Assistant School.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call me at any time. I can be contacted by
