Why I Want To Be A Surgical Physician's Assistant

Surgical Physician’s Assistant is my number one career choice. Educators are constantly looking for ways to improve. (or constantly research their specific field of study). The Department of Safety and Security draft policies that prevent harm to their constituents. College softball players are committed to extensive practice and study to master the skills of their sport. As a physician’s assistant, I see myself incorporating (merging) all three. I want to master the skills of a Surgical Physician’s Assistant, work to improve the process of preventative care, and successfully research areas to ensure patients endure a healthy life.

My education must pave the way for anything else I do. But an education in medicine is not easy. We are constantly being flooded with information and everyday this progresses more. Learning to perform excise clinical judgment requires extensive, life-long study. When I was growing up, I thoroughly enjoyed playing softball and wanted to excel.

profession.

The most important part of a surgical physician’s assistant is to assist the physician in the complete management of patient care in pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative settings. I strongly believe that an crucial part of that care is education. More knowledge transforms into better opportunities and leads to greater control over one’s circumstances. In healthcare, meaningful patient education can do the same. I saw this while shadowing my cousin. She taught her patients in a friendly, clear, and efficient manner.

As a surgical physician’s assistant, I hope to sharpen these skills and consequently empower my patients to have control of their health.

I believe surgical physician’s assistant is an excellent specialty. I am excited to learn more about this vocation. I want to find an internship that offers the opportunity to (train) in a well-structured environment with physicians who love to teach. As I seek to learn more about becoming a surgical physician’s assistant, I need an internship that will make it possible for me strengthen my ….
