I'm a PA in NYC with 5 years of experience making $120k/year. Is this on par with others or should I be looking for more?

On a scale of 1-10, how happy are you with your PA career?

What are some red flags you look for when you're applying to jobs? I feel like if a company has to say it respects & cares about it's employees, it probably doesn't. But maybe I'm totally off. 🤔

Any PAs create or work as an inboxologist? How did you define this role for yourself and can you share more on your experience? I have both family medicine and psychiatric care backgrounds. Thanks!

I believe that public awareness about what PAs do is lacking, which sometimes affects our work. How do you educate your patients and their families about the PA’s role?
