@PresdentLaFleur
Because they are graduates. And generate more income for the people they work with. You guys are full of resentment. You should lose it and learn to work with others. It’s a big sandbox. If you have a problem don’t blame other team members: blame the cause. It’s not PAs for sure
@DrNeenaJha
PAs study medicine. You are just afraid others can do it hat you do. Calm down and give them a chance. Or don’t and let evidenced based science take over.
@HalstedMD
And let's take everything patients say and understand and swear on the Bible it's true. Have the surgeon ask the PA if they said this. No PA I know, and I know many would say this. STOP INCITING.
@AmerMedicalAssn
The worst state for healthcare in the nation. The 49th to pass PA legislation: Did you consult hospitals in NY or CT? Do studies at Montefiore on their 50 year old PA surgical residency? Doubt it all. You are grasping at only the info you want to hear.
@HalstedMD
They are going to be here. Why not press for better training for them? This will get you nowhere. I can point to physicians who have done the same.
@peacockTV
I’d like to know why Kimberly Morgan was portrayed as a physician assistant (associate) in the
#DoctorDeath
series when in real life she was not and never was a PA. She is another professional. Who made this choice to misrepresent, & why? As a PA, this is a lie. Why
@AmerMedicalAssn
6 PAs in the study. Hardly scientific. And who knows if they even wanted to participate. Go to Northwell and do the same. Or a mayo or Hopkins with a few hundred and let’s see…
@BMA_James_Steen
I'm sorry but this is fear-mongering. In the States PAs do many things physicians do, so well that physicians who HIRE us keep hiring us. And our outcomes are excellent. I would ask you to look at the evidence, but not sure it would matter.
@MidlevelWTF
@DrQuinn15
Low level I don’t mean the alleged PA. Was it someone made up? Or do we now do chart violations. I truly know PA medical training and this is not that.
@DrBritWilliams
I am a PA. NPs and PAs both women dominated professions have laws saying if you have a doctorate, you can’t say you have one in front of a patient. PTs, OTs, pharmacists, chiropractors and other health care professions can. MACROaggression?

@AmerMedicalAssn
PAs of which I am one, and NPs treat millions of people daily.Hundreds of thousands of physicians choose us to work with and see their patients in their private offices. This is much more about power and money than anything else. It IS hurting the team you say you lead. Sad,
@VirtueOfNothing
If it works so well in the States(although least one out of 3 physicians works closely with a PA) and there are 180,000 PAs-why would the same education and clinical skills not work in the UK.
@DrBral
It's all residents. PAs have residencies and they are helping also. And how about the people who mop up, clean the COVID-19 rooms and security. They never graduate and make more money. Many heros these days.
@HalstedMD
And who wrote this? PAs can sign prescriptions in all 50 states. So can NPs. More BS. If true, it's the fault of the physician in TX, not the PA or NP who is usually underpaid and overworked.
@StephenNP
Thanks for the inclusion. We are Physician Associates now. Assistant was the title the AMA gave us.
Time we all realized the “shortage” is tied more to economics and politics and less to abilities.
Are you familiar with Mishel's Uncertainty in Illness Theory? If you're not, now's a great time to download Ep. 2 of the Clinician1 podcast and find out what it means and how it relates to Baby Boomers and Hep C.
@doctorgretchen
Sorry. You are wrong. What state do you practice in? pAs have Chaored the medical board in a number of states and certainly do not practice nursing. I guess we are invisible to you? I don’t believe you have ever practiced close to one who is experienced.
@NPCouncilMiami
I have been providing care for 48 years. You are trying to frighten them, just like you did with DOs years ago. It’s all about power and money, not care. What I do I do very well. What I don’t I refer. I guess that’s dangerous?
@Suburbanbella
Why didn’t the people who hired her-was it a physician?- insure she knew what she needed to know? She was thrown in over her head and does not want to lose the job. She needs to tell them. Unfair to all.
A 66-year-old male presents with two days of constant moderate-to-severe low back pain that started suddenly while working at his desk. Can you solve our latest quiz?
@doctorgretchen
Where are you located? PAs do not precept NPs in training, not allowed by NPs. Physicians and NPs do.. PAs do residents possibly. Ask the chiefs in most institutions. Mayo, Yale, they will tell you. And don't use midlevel. As a favor spell out the clinician-much more accurate.
@jaynstein
Don't cry. Do your job, support your profession and realize that America has always had people who thought just because they felt superior to others, they had a right to treat them as though they were invisible.They don't. We are not. Will will not be.
In this article, we’ll discuss common healthcare injuries. Medical professionals owe it to themselves to take every possible precaution to prevent them. Nobody deserves to hurt in the name of making others feel better!

Funny, medical society says that NPs/PAs are dangerous but the language and legislation coming out of Florida, I have heard nothing. C'Mon FMA, show us how to lead in real evidenced based medicine. And the Surgeon General does not fully believe in vaccines. Gotta love the state.
@pppforpatients
You guys are really off course here. I don’t know what you are reading but as someone who cares about our medical care system, if these things are going on-report them. I see things going on every day that are questionable amongst partnerships, venture capital companies, etc. wow
@kriebel_ann
You forgot to say that these frequently are poorly researched memes that some would say speak negatively about NPs and PAs. Sad that we do not all learn about each other in school.
