National Physician Assistant Day (November 27)

On November 27, Canadians celebrate National Physician Assistant Day, which recognizes the physician assistant (PA) profession and its contributions to healthcare in Canada. Working alongside physicians and other health professionals, PAs are having a positive impact on many aspects of healthcare from emergency room wait times, access to primary care, the quality of seniors care and access to healthcare in rural communities. Join us in celebrating our PAs and thanking them for their important and life-saving contributions. Learn more about the profession by visiting the Canadian Association of Physician Assistants website.
