By "other", I assume you mean MD. So, you're assertion, I'm presuming is that an MD is always better than a PA or NP, correct? In family practice, I would definitely argue against that point. There are many excellent PAs & NPs, just like their are many excellent MDs. If a patient has a good relationship with a PA or NP, than they may easily be the preferred provider. In specialties, yes, most often the MD would be preferred. However, I would probably want to see a PA who has worked in neurology for 20 years over a new grad MD.
@RemyOtero thank you for clarifying. Sorry if I got defensive, we are so often put down in the medical system that I just assumed it was another attack. 😜 So I’m curious, if you don’t mind me asking, from your experience, is there no difference because your organization doesn’t care what the laws are, or is it that you just practice in a state(s) where are the PA and NP laws are pretty much the same?

I can speak from a tele-neurological standpoint, PAs and NPs are not preferred over each other. Sorry for the mistype.

@@TheMedicineCouch I agree. I am sorry for the mistype.
Oh, so you meant as for hiring purposes, you don’t see in your specialty that one profession ( PA or NP) has a hiring advantage over the other?
@@TheMedicineCouch Correct.
