Medical institutions are seeking out physician assistants to supplement their staff populations. There is a move towards limiting the number of hours physicians are allowed to practice in a work week, thereby creating more and more opportunities for a PA in the healthcare industry.

A physician assistant has a variety of specialization areas to consider. A physician assistant in neonatology is concerned with the medical needs of newborn infants. A neonatology PA is required to assist critical care physicians in the immediate care of newborns in a hospital setting. Normally this area of specialization requires a larger hospital environment, due to the sophisticated equipment necessary to practice this type of medicine, and the cost of staffing a specialized unit.

Physician assistants provide an invaluable service to a medical team, relieving physicians from their routine duties, thus freeing them to concentrate on more specialized health-related issues.
