The Association of Physician Associates in Obstetrics & Gynecology (APAOG) is proud to endorse the candidacy of Leslie Clayton, DMSc, PA-C, DFAAPA for AAPA President-Elect 2026/2027.

Throughout her nearly 25-year career, the majority of Leslie’s clinical practice has been in family medicine, where she has provided extensive women’s healthcare. In addition to her clinical work, she has spent more than a decade educating future PAs on topics including PAP testing, HPV, infertility, and multiple gestation, while also contributing to research focused on access to infertility care.

Leslie’s longstanding commitment to advocacy, education, leadership, and improving access to care reflects many of the values central to APAOG’s mission. We are excited to support her candidacy and wish her the very best throughout the election process.
