Physician Associates

Physician associates are healthcare professionals with a generalist medical education who work alongside doctors providing medical care as an integral part of the team.

Physician associates are practitioners working with a dedicated supervisor and are able to work independently with appropriate support.

Physician associates can see many of the things traditionally booked with a doctor. 

We are aware that the scope, regulation and supervision of physician associates is under discussion at national level. We wait with interest the outcome of these discussions.

At Paxton Green, we have had Jac-Marcus Goult working under the supervision of the doctors as a physician associate for several years. He is a highly valued member of the team and has consistently received excellent feedback from patients.
