Physicians' Assistants
Physician Assistants (PAs) are healthcare professionals licensed to examine, diagnose, and treat patients under the supervision of a doctor. They perform tasks similar to doctors, such as prescribing medications, ordering tests, and developing treatment plans. PAs undergo extensive medical training and education, often including a master's degree, and work in various medical settings like hospitals and clinics. They collaborate with healthcare teams to provide comprehensive patient care, helping to increase access to medical services and improve patient outcomes efficiently.
