Physician Assistants

The initials "PA-C" stand for Physician Assistant- Certified.  To be certified they must complete 100 hours of Continuing Education (CEU) courses every 2 years and take a re-certification exam every six years. Panorama proudly has 17 PA-C's to support the patients who seek care at our facilities. They are health care professionals who are licensed to practice medicine under a physician's supervision. Their responsibilities include diagnosing and treating injuries, conducting physical examinations, ordering and interpreting tests, assisting in surgery, and writing prescriptions. The relationship between the PA and the supervising doctor is one of mutual trust and respect that ensures our patients complete and personal care. They view each other as part of a medical team, both essential for the patient's welfare. At Panorama, we value the contribution that our PA's offer to both physicians and patients.
