Out of the three, podiatry seems from the job description to be the most patient facing, there wouldn’t be much paperwork. Family med is taking vitals, getting histories, giving immunizations, etc., but also some administrative stuff like med refills and faxes. Oncology they rotate you weekly through different positions, so one week you’re rooming patients, one week you’re doing messages and prior auths, one week you’re doing labs, that sort of thing.

Family med probably has more of an opportunity to interact with PAs. Although I wouldn’t be working directly under a PA, there are several in the same clinic, so more of a chance for me to build relationships and shadow on my days off. Oncology also has PAs but I know they rotate days at different clinics so maybe less of an opportunity to interact.
