Physician Assistant Doctorate Survey
The American Academy of Physician Assistants and Physician Assistant Education Association are conducting an online survey about clinical doctorate degrees and the PA profession. The survey also asks about PA-to-physician bridge programs.
Is the clinical doctorate appropriate to the PA profession as an entry-level degree, as a postgraduate degree, or not at all? How should the PA profession approach the emerging issue of the clinical doctorate?
To help answer these questions and others AAPA and PAEA have partnered to explore the role of the clinical doctorate in the PA profession. As part of that exploration we have created a survey to assess the opinions of physician assistants on the issue.
I think it's an important step forward for the AAPA and PAEA to ask PAs about their views.
Access the survey at the AAPA Web site.
