Physician Assistants in orthopedics carry significant responsibility for patient care—from clinic evaluations to the operating room and postoperative recovery. Yet many PAs experience burnout not from the work itself, but from feeling unheard at an administrative level.
In this episode, we discuss the frustration of being trusted with outcomes while facing pushback and lack of advocacy within healthcare systems. We explore how this disconnect affects morale, retention, and how to recognize and address it.
