Listen Later

#039 In this episode, I share my career trajectory all the way from a political science major to becoming a Dermatology PA. I discuss the educational path to becoming a PA, highlighting the general training received in PA programs, rotations during the second year, and the importance of hands-on clinical experience. I detail my experience working in critical care, emphasizing the rewarding yet demanding nature of the job and finally just how I landed the elusive Derm job. This episode even delves into the financial aspects, including my student loan repayment strategies through refinancing.
