Thoughts From a New PA
Recent graduate Jessica Boudreaux-Milliagan wrote about becoming a PA for the July issue of PAEA Networker.
It is difficult to believe that only four years ago, most of my patients had four legs and were covered with fur or feathers. You see, I had spent most of my post-high school life in veterinary medicine and the notion of going into human medicine was, well, at that time, not something I was considering. But my ideas of what I was going to “be when I grew up” changed over the years and, while I may miss my earlier patients from time to time, becoming a PA was the best decision I have ever made (even better than when I said “I do”!).
