Tamara Dismukes

Physician Assistant / Co-Owner

Tamara has been a Physician Assistant for the past 10 years, specializing in Hormone Replacement Therapy, Weight Loss, and Emergency Medicine. Known for her clinical expertise and her down-to-earth personality, she has a knack for helping patients feel both comfortable and confident in their care.

Outside of work, Tamara is a proud wife and mom of two, where her multitasking skills are put to the ultimate test—juggling family life, career, and the occasional PTA meeting. She enjoys running, gardening, and convincing her plants to stay alive (with mixed success).

Her favorite procedure? PRP injections—because what’s better than using the body’s own “liquid gold” to help heal, restore, and refresh? Patients might say she’s equally enthusiastic about cheering them on through their health journeys as she is about catching a good marathon (the running kind, not the Netflix kind).

Company Story

The story of Prime began when Ashlee was constantly approached by her gym friends and family who asked her to review their labs and help them better understand their health. What started as casual consultations quickly grew into a calling. At the same time, Ashlee was personally battling her own autoimmune illness. Frustrated by a broken medical system that focused more on masking symptoms than on healing, she began pursuing functional medicine to find and treat the root causes of disease. This passion for true healing became the foundation of what Prime represents today.

Recognizing the need for a strong, trusted team, Ashlee brought in two of her former colleagues from emergency medicine, Tamara and Glen, and later joined forces with athletic trainer and medical assistant Jessica. Together, they became the ultimate all-star team—a group built on trust, expertise, and a shared passion for patient care.
