Physician Assistant

Celebrating National Physician Assistant Week with the Tufts PA program!

"My personal and professional interests center on addressing systemic issues within healthcare and championing compassionate medicine—values that align with the Tufts PA curriculum."

"What I love most about the program is the wealth of resources Tufts provides its students. We have access to a state-of-the-art simulation center for practicing our procedural skills and physical exams."

"This program makes clear that collaboration is essential to being successful in this program, which will truly make us all better members of our future medical teams!"

"I decided I want to be the type of provider that advocates for my patients, addresses their needs and concerns, and makes them feel cared for and heard."

"The world requires a new generation of healthcare providers that have a unique, multidisciplinary perspective on disease etiology to yield greater compassion and better health outcomes, and I hope to be a part of that driving force as a PA."

"My year of clinical rotations was by far my favorite part of the program. Compared to other programs, we had shorter rotations but across a larger number of specialties, which meant we got to see an extremely diverse range of medicine."

Congratulations to this year's outstanding graduates!

"My favorite aspect of the program was how collaborative all the students were during the didactic year. PA school is already difficult—why make it more difficult by creating a competitive environment?"
