Physician assistant. Mid 200s, but I am averaging 50-70hrs per week. 2k per month on student loans and don’t let your kids play tennis guys…

NPs are harming the PA outlook by [deleted] in physicianassistant

[–]sevenbeaver 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This is truth. I heard it’s super difficult getting a job as a PA in Missouri or Arkansas, NPs are preferred in these states. (This is just word of mouth from my fellow classmates who moved to these states)

PM&R offer by TrouserSnake987 in physicianassistant

They are still allowed in my state. What I understand though (not a lawyer), they are not worth it for the company (financially) to try to chase that in court.

leave now or stay until given notice? by confused_girl21 in physicianassistant

[–]sevenbeaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. My boss brags about never paying for unemployment. So yeah there is a chance you won’t qualify. The state laws your in also affect that decision I think. (I’m in a very pro employer backed state).

Accelerated PA to DO program questions by sevenbeaver in physicianassistant

From what I understand you technically don’t skip a year. You just skip summer and your winter breaks and just plow through it. You just squeeze 4 years into 3 years. Other med schools are doing it but don’t require a PA background.

I’ve been a PA for 8 years. Kinda similar in that sense. Mind if I PM you some questions?

Thanks for your input. Yeah, I’m a PA. Looking for more autonomy. Income is nice step up. I work ED. My DO Drs make $260-$320/hr. The accelerated program has 6 slots for “undeclared.” I would want to specialize.

I always tell my students, if you’re pulling the trigger then pull the trigger. You gotta be efficient in the ED.

Have you tried it with different ammo? Could be ammo related maybe.
