Great video. Thanks! I’m 19. Considering physician assistant with a speciality within oncology. I enjoyed seeing your day to day and can definitely see myself doing this for the rest of my life.

Thank you for sharing!! Great video!! I also work in a community oncology clinic. It’s interesting to see how practices function differently. Is each provider assigned a nurse (LPN or RN) that manages their caseload/ triage calls. In our clinic, each provider is assigned a nurse that assists throughout the clinic day and handles triage calls. Also In our clinic, the clinic nurse and infusion nurse have different roles. I know some clinics combine these roles.

Thank you! I’ve worked in many oncology settings academic and community. They all run a little differently. We have an MA, NP, myself and MD. Although where I worked before we had clinic and infusion nurses. Interesting to see the differences!

Youre welcome! You have to have your transcript evaluated by WES to see if you have a US bachelors equivalent. You still may have to take prerequisites in the US.
