Physician assistants work in all areas of medicine. Your work will depend in large part on your specialty or the type of medical practice where you work. In some areas, especially rural and medically underserved communities, physician assistants may be the primary care providers at clinics where a physician is present only one or two days per week. In these locations, you will collaborate with the physician as needed and as required by law. Employment of physician assistants is projected to grow 30% over the next 10 years, much faster than the average for all occupations.
