Misericordia's Physician Assistant Program team, consisting of experienced PAs, physicians, a pharmacologist, a professor of anatomy, a pathophysiologist, and inter-professional collaborators, has devoted much time and attention to the development of a PA program that is rooted in sound biomedical concepts and clinical practice.

The PA Program delivers a rigorous and robust curriculum, one that prepares graduates for success when taking the Physician Assistant National Certification Examination (PANCE). The curriculum and program competencies have been designed to meet the program's mission statement to educationally transform and mentor students to become competent and compassionate Physician Assistants.
