    As a fourth-year medical student (physician pathway), I agree wholeheartedly with this video. There are great advantages to being a PA. I have no regrets about my choice to become a doctor, but it is refreshing to hear the objective benefits of PA vs doctor.

    I don’t know if I believe that you’re a PA…you aren’t wearing the signature PA Patagonia 🧐 PAs always are looking the best and most comfortable.

    Haha. I've been wearing the same scrubs for years, along with a cheap fleece jacket that's comfy. No special fashion here, but some people are into that.

    There is no advantage in cutting short health education.

    That may depend on what part of the schooling is being cut. For instance, there's a lot of stuff in the first two years of medical school that's not very practical once you start working as a doctor.

    That's what I mean. When I say there's stuff you learn in the first two years of med school that's not very practical, I mean it's stuff that you don't need to know, and won't really use during your career as a doctor. If you ask doctors about this, most of them would tell you the same thing (that a significant percentage of what they learned in med school, they didn't really need to know, and they don't use it).
