Rast earned her medical degree at Ross University School of Medicine in Portsmouth, Dominica, and completed her residency at St. Joseph’s Hospital Health Center in Syracuse. She is board certified in family medicine and has special interests in preventive care, nutrition, sports medicine and continuity of care.
