    About

    A Physician Assistant (PA) is a nationally certified and state-licensed health care professional who practices and prescribes medicine in coordination with physicians and other providers. To practice as a PA, you need a qualifying bachelor's degree followed by a master's degree in Physician Assistant Studies. The two degrees typically take a combined six years to complete. ACPHS has great physician assistant programs for you to get your Bachelor's and Master's degree.

    This is an exciting time for PAs as they are being granted additional responsibilities due to physician shortages around the nation. Their increasing importance to the health care team is also being reflected in their salaries. According to job site glassdoor.com, PAs are the 7th highest paid professionals in America with average base salaries of $112,000/year.
