What is a Physician Assistant?
According to the American Academy of Physician Assistants, "Physician
Assistants are health professionals licensed to practice medicine
with physician supervision. Physician Assistants (PA's) are qualified
by graduation from an accredited physician assistant educational
program and certification by the National Commission on Certification
of PA's. Within the physician/PA relationship, PA's exercise autonomy
in medical decision-making and provide a broad range of diagnostic
and therapeutic services. The clinical role of PA's includes primary
and specialty care in medical and surgical practice settings in
rural and urban areas. PA practice is centered on patient care and
may include educational, research and administrative activities."
