https://physicianassistantboards.com is dedicated to providing free medical content, motivation, and advice to help you get through school, the boards, and clinical practice.
My goal here is not only to help make you better clinicians, but also better individuals.
Remember to think of this as a journey and not a destination. You need to enjoy every moment of the process, because the process is really what is most important - not only in medicine, but in life.
