Nurse Practitioner Dawn Olynyk has joined PSA at our Seguin location. She brings decades of experience and a rich clinical background to our team. Originally from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, Dawn began her career in emergency medicine in 1993. After relocating to Texas, she continued practicing as a registered nurse in emergency departments, cardiac intensive care units, and cardiac catheterization labs across the state.
Dawn played a pivotal role in developing rapid response systems and teams at both Baptist Health and University Health Systems in San Antonio. Following her graduate and postgraduate education, she earned her Family Nurse Practitioner certification and began practicing functional medicine in the community. She later transitioned into acute care, focusing on general medicine and cardiology—specifically electrophysiology—as a hospitalist and cardiac specialist. In these roles, she managed both inpatient and outpatient populations with acute and chronic conditions.
In early 2023, Dawn expanded into the field of pain management, which she views as a natural progression from her years in trauma care. She brings with her proficiency in large joint and trigger point injections.
Outside of the clinic, Dawn has a passion for raising, training, and competing with her Siberian Huskies. She enjoys spending time with her family, especially her 3-year-old granddaughter, and fills her free time with outdoor activities, interior design, and exploring the Texas Hill Country.
