activemath121 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I would really like to become an PA in the ER, and I was wondering if you had to have to Emergency Medicine specialty to do so. Also, just a general question regarding specialties: if you graduate PA school without a specialty, what are the job options? Are most people just in general practice or internal medicine? (If there is another thread regarding this topic, could you please direct me to it?) Thanks a bunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator EMEDPA Posted August 20, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 20, 2013 Are you certified, though? the CAQ for rhythm guitar doesn't start until next year but I think you need a residency at the bonjovi school of postgrad studies to be eligible.

Moderator EMEDPA Posted August 20, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 20, 2013 the serious answer if that most pa programs produce generalists. you become a specialist either on the job or through completion of a postgrad residency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
