I have had to opportunity to shadow a PA that gave me all the bad about it and it scared me a bit I would like to ask 2 questions he did not do a good job of answering to anyone that is a PA, have you switched concentrations before and how difficult was it, as well as how many CE do you have to get a year and how difficult has that been?
Comment from : @DillyHD

Doing a lot of research into this career Just found your videos and they are super insightful It's refreshing to see that a lot of the things you do day to day at work are the things I expected to do on the job once I graduate Hoping to get into PA school in about a year and a half after I complete all the relevant coursework I'll definitely keep coming back to this channel so I can know more about what to expect

In my first semester of PA School right now, the material isn’t difficult, you just barely have any time to absorb an enormous volume of information; coupled with 2-3 exams per week -> high stress

How much is PA school
Comment from : @africangold3627

Thank you for your video I have been a PA for over 8 years and have seen a lot I think reverting the title back to the original Physician Associate is a huge step forward I worked for 2 major companies in my field (dermatology) and both told me they preferred hiring NP's over PA's because NP's don't have to recertify and didn't need a supervising physician It's less expensive and less liability for physicians to keep them on staff Also, they often have a doctorate degree, which patients prefer over anything with a word assistant in it I see a better future for PA's with the title change and possibly gaining more autonomy, but as of right now I would recommend med school or NP school over PA I was just as exstatic about being a PA for the first couple of years after graduation A doc in my friend makes $400k a year and a PA 130K, if a doc has Mohs fellowship they'll be close to $1M and PA working for a Mohs doc close to $200
Comment from : @lilylife4426

if you wouldn’t mind, could you go into more depth of why you chose PA over MD/DO? brbri am struggling with trying to figure out what i want to pursue i think i put a lot of pressure on myself to “pick the better option” but it’s been so hard to get more info on this from the perspective of a PA! thanks!
Comment from : @bbymads

I’ve been subscribed since you started PA school and everything has been so helpful im finally applying this cycle! Super nervous but excited to see what’s to come 🎉
Comment from : @lesliecaudillo6448

I'm just now finding your channel and you're such an inspiration!! I'm also from South Florida and have applied to Florida Atlantic as well as University of South Florida to pursue my bachelor's in health science after I exit the Marine Corps in September My ultimate goal is to become a Physician Assistant, I was nervous because I don't have much experience in healthcare other than a few of the university classes I've taken but you've motivated me to keep on pushing (:

What are the conditions for applying for a job as a physician assistant in the United States? Do they accept the certificate of the institute?
Comment from : @gilbert3922

Nova is one of my top choices as well but for me I just like nova from when I visited it, location and how it is very healthcare centered Why was it your top choice? I’m trying to get ready to apply for next year & trying to see which aspects are best to look at 🤔
Comment from : @thee_rarity8477

Thanks for sharing! I thought I was the only one who was homeschooled and started dual enrollment college at 14 Do our parents know eachother? 😂 Very similar story Wonder how many of us are out there Congrats on getting through PA school!
Comment from : @elizabethnetherton6296

I just found your channel and I'm so glad I did! I have aspirations of going into the medical field and I often feel discouraged because of my background but I know I shouldn't let it get to me
Comment from : @francescacaraballo_

How are your work hours? Or shifts
Comment from : @zeniqueapowell515

I was homeschooled until 6th grade At that point, my parents decided to send my sister and I to school Now, here I am at age 37 considering becoming a PA we'll see how this goes Thanks for the videos!

Comment from : @nicolesantamaria2060

As an engineer and licensed PA, If I landed a job as a Medical Assistant, it would be a box of lucky charms for me 😂😂😂 One advise, never change career if one is over 40 years 😂😂😂 I am currently looking in other fruitful and realistic field that makes quick money at my age My sister had passed away just before I started PA school My sincerest condolences to your loss of your sister😢😢😢 May they RIP 🙏
Comment from : @bobdeengineer7396

Hi! So sorry if I missed this in any of your videos, but did you ever work part time during your undergrad years? What did you do for clinical experience?
Comment from : @patricia_vj

Comment from : @queenofambition3111

Hi Dani,brI have been watching ur videos and they are truly inspiring I’m currently working as med surge nurse and planning to go back to school for PA next year Will you please tell me what should I really pay to attention to while I’m working as a nurse? Is there something particular that I should pay attention to at work that may help me in PA school in the future? Thank you Dani for making a difference in peoples’ lives!
Comment from : @YM-wd3mc

When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance Mark 2:17
Comment from : @ayoolukoga9829

Not in PA school, but NP school Some of it feels similar Thanks for the advice!
Comment from : @juliet5413

can you make a video talking about financial advice during PA school? Like talking about loans dos and don'ts
Comment from : @numberone22459

Throughout your career did you ever consider dating any disabled people or did you see yourself as above handicapped people? Also, did you come across many disabled people throughout your time at Uni and in the medical field?

Comment from : @dextervillote1988

I just got into PA school at UTHSCSA and I can proudly say I was homeschooled too!
Comment from : @coryannthornock9253

If it was easy to get into the field, it would be way more saturated Also they say the NP field is saturated, which maybe affects PAs?brAND HEY!! PA student here who was homeschooled 3rd-12th grade too! :) lmao
Comment from : @edapen9829

Comment from : @Saniafaiyaz12

hi, I've been watching your videos from the beginning and just wanted to thankyou for the amount of motivation you give me to reach my goal as a PA I'm currently working as a PCT/CNA with baycare and sometimes it can be tough but I always remember the purpose while I juggle other things l see you as a big sister who is a strong preserving individual, and I've gained more confident in reaching my goals from watching your vids Hopefully in the future once I'm ready to apply to PA school, I'll use your website for advice beforehand Also it makes me so happy seeing you reach your goals in life :)
