Overview

Physician Assistants (PAs) are health care professionals who earn a master’s degree and are licensed to practice medicine with physician supervision as a mid-level healthcare provider. PAs take medical histories and conduct physical exams, diagnose and treat illnesses, order and interpret tests, counsel on preventive health care, assist in surgery, prescribe medications, and do clinical research. The American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) advocates a philosophy of training healthcare clinicians who expand access to care and practice patient-centered, team-based medical care.
