Physician Assistants
Permanent PA positions in surgical, medical, and primary care settings at leading health systems nationwide.
Your Career
PA recruitment that values what you actually bring to a practice.
Physician assistants are one of the fastest-growing segments in healthcare staffing, but too many recruiting firms still treat PA placement as an afterthought — lumping PAs into the same pipeline as NPs without understanding the differences in training model, clinical workflow, or how PAs integrate into surgical and procedural teams.
MSA's advanced practice recruiters understand the PA role specifically. They know which practices use PAs as true surgical first assists versus which ones want a PA in name but an NP workflow in practice. They know the compensation differences between hospital-employed and private practice PA roles, and they'll give you an honest read on what a position actually looks like day-to-day.
Why MSA
Recruiters who understand the PA role — not just the "APP" category.
Surgical & Procedural Expertise
Our recruiters know the difference between a PA role that involves real OR time and one that's clinic-only with a surgical title. You'll know before you interview.
Practice Model Transparency
Supervisory structure, call expectations, patient volume, procedure mix — we give you the full picture before you invest time in an opportunity.
Competitive Market Knowledge
PA compensation varies significantly by specialty, setting, and geography. Your recruiter benchmarks every opportunity against current market data.
Permanent Placement Focus
MSA focuses on permanent positions, not locum fill-ins. We're matching you with a career move, not a temporary gig.

Medical
I wanted a surgical PA role with actual OR time, not just pre-op and post-op. My MSA recruiter understood exactly what I was looking for and didn't waste my time with clinic-only positions.
