A PA is a physician’s assistant. PA’s are health care professionals licensed to practice medicine with physician supervision. PA’s attend an intense two year training program after completing a bachelor’s degree. They are accredited by the state of Georgia. PA’s conduct physical examinations, diagnose and treat illnesses, order and interpret tests, counsel on preventive health care, assist in surgery, and prescribe non-narcotic medications.
