Physician associates have been part of the NHS for more than a decade, with their numbers growing steadily across the UK. As integral members of medical teams, they conduct patient examinations, request and analyze diagnostic tests, and suggest treatment plans. These healthcare professionals are becoming more vital within the sector, with qualified individuals being highly sought after. Our PGDip/MSc in Physician Associate Studies equips students with essential clinical competencies through academic instruction and hands-on training. Following the medical framework, you'll learn to work alongside physicians and other medical staff to assess and treat various common and challenging conditions. Those enrolled in the Master's program will additionally complete a research project tied to clinical practice during their second academic year.
