Physician's Assistant Recommendation Report
It is my pleasure to recommend Molly Rooy to your Physician's Assistant program as she is an exceptionally qualified candidate. As an MD I need full confidence and trust with my interdisciplinary team when caring for our medically complex patients. When Molly started with Select Specialty, a long-term acute care hospital, she was quick to develop connections with staff, patients and family. I immediately learned that I could rely on her as she routinely updates me on the nutritional status of patients, modifications to her interventions and provides appropriate recommendations. Her charting is impeccable, including thoroughly explaining her interventions and are always up-to-date. Molly's superior critical thinking and problem-solving skills

    How you address a patient throughout the duration of their visit can have a significant impact on the quality of their appointment. Being a medical assistant requires not only medical knowledge but a significant amount of social skills as well – making the patient feel important and respected is essential to having return clients. While greeting the patient by name is imperative, finding out the patient’s preferred title will help them feel more comfortable and improve the patient-assistant relationship. For example, a woman named Jennifer Smith could be referred to as Ms. Smith, Jennifer, or perhaps a nickname such as Jenny; whatever the patient favors should be used frequently to reaffirm a personal relationship between them and the medical…

    It’s amazing how much I’ve learned in the past eight months at Fortis Institute. It’s just so hard to believe that less than two weeks we will be done with my education. I must admit I will miss spending my time here. But most of all I will never forget the experience I received as an Intern Medical Assistant working with Patients. 
Making a difference in someone’s life just fascinates me, knowing that I have the power to help someone. Working at North Belt Medical Clinic as a Medical Assistant intern is one of the greatest life experience. I will not trade it in for any other work field. Becoming an assistant also supplies knowledge of the most intimate interactions of the natural processes, giving a glimpse of processes that are not easy to understand. At this Center the patients are Diabetes related. As I spend more time as an intern at this Clinic I was inspired by Dr. Willie Harrison who helped and gave hope to many of these people, had myself raise some questions on the concepts and wonder what it would be like to be a part of the North Belt Medical team or somewhat relate to this field. I believe that Medical Assistant program classes at Fortis Institute help gave me an opportunity to pursue my passion for helping those with medical problems and let me feel at ease on the first hand training at the North Belt Medical Clinic. At the North Belt Medical Clinic I learn to Answering phones and making appointments ordering supplies, greeting patients, pulling and filing patient charts, calling in or faxing prescriptions, converting charts to electronic charting. Hopefully I can take these skills I learn and better myself in life.…

    There are many organizations that physician assistants can join to connect with other physician assistants and keep up with current issues taking place in the profession. The American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) is a national professional organization for physician assistants that practice in the United States.1 The AAPA represents 108,500 certified physician assistants throughout the country.2 For members, tools and resources are provided to further improve the quality and accessibility of health care. This organization holds annual conferences across the country for physician assistants (this year the annual conference will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada).3 I believe it would be beneficial for me to join this organization when I am practicing as a physician assistant because I will be able to connect with many physician assistants from across the country as well as learn about issues in my field and how to improve the quality of care given. AAPA uses email to convey information on…

    Why become a physician assistant (PA) over a doctor (MD) or a registered nurse (RN)? Although the duties of a RN resemble those of a PA, PA’s have more responsibilities and the ability to prescribe medication, plus the salary is a lot better. Of course with more responsibilities comes more education, while RN’s only require a 4-year degree, becoming a PA requires the completion of a 2-3-year physician assistant program. I decided to go for PA instead of MD because I do not want to go to school for another 6 years or put myself hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. As a physician assistant, I get to perform the same duties as a doctor with the exception of surgery; I could assist in surgery only under supervision of a physician. Another reason to choose PA over MD was the flexibility when it comes to specialties. Doctors are required to choose a specialty and…

    Physician assistants are often one of the most misperceived health professions, for many believe that they are medical assistants, those who do routine clinical and clerical tasks, rather than a licensed medical professional. A physician assistant, also known as a PA, “practices medicine on teams with physicians, surgeons, and other healthcare workers” (Bureau of Labor Statistics [BLS], n.d.). The duties of a physician assistant include: take/review patients’ medical histories, examine patients, order/interpret diagnostic tests, diagnose, provide treatment, and prescribe medication. However, physician assistant duties and the extent of supervision by physicians can vary between states. “Physician assistants work in all areas of medicine, including primary care ad family medicine, emergency medicine,…

    My goal is to be a provider who takes the extra step to help patients understand their diagnosis, and help them select the treatment option that best suits their needs. The ability to assess patients, order diagnostic testing as appropriate, and formulate a treatment plan is exciting to me, but it’s also reassuring to know I will have a collaborative healthcare team to discuss cases when needed. I strive to lessen the disconnect between a patient and a provider. My work has taught me valuable skills to accomplish this career goal by strengthening my interpersonal communication skills and enabling me to feel comfortable working independently and in a team-based setting while paying attention to detail and providing for my patients who are under high levels of stress. I saw these shared qualities I possess in the PAs I worked alongside during my internship.…
