Have you met PA "JT" Carrino yet? Did you know JT grew up right here on the Emerald Coast? He had to leave when his parents’ military duty station changed—but he returned as soon as he could!
John-Thomas “JT” Carrino, PA-C, is a board-certified physician assistant with more than a decade of clinical experience. He spent his childhood in Shalimar and Valparaiso while his parents were stationed at Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field. After moving to Tennessee, JT earned his bachelor’s degree in biology with a minor in psychology from Tusculum University, followed by a Master of Medical Science from the LMU–DeBusk College of Osteopathic Medicine Physician Assistant Program.
For the past 10 years, JT cared for patients at Greeneville Ear, Nose and Throat Specialists, where he worked in the clinic, assisted in surgery and helped train medical and physician assistant students. He has extensive experience diagnosing and treating allergy, sinus and vestibular conditions.
JT is thrilled to be back in Northwest Florida with his wife, Gabrielle, and their two young daughters, Ella and Emilia. Outside the office, he enjoys University of Tennessee sports, boating, building custom computers and spending time with his family and their dogs, Prince and Mae.
