Depending on the geographic area that one is working, and willingness for taking extra call and hours, it is possible to approach 200 K. Most do not make 200,000 though. My experience, PAs are rarely able to buy into surgery centers or practices. I have heard of a handful of practices throughout the country, though. PAs, owning or buying into practices, is more common in primary care.

All PA programs train for general medical practice. Orthopedic training can be done through on job training, which is how most do it, or through a 6 month or 1 year ortho residency program. Orthopedic surgeons go through 4 years of medical school, then 4 years or ortho residency, and most do a one to two year sub-specialty fellowship training. I am not all that familiar with podiatry training. I believe that they do four or five years after undergraduate university.

Glad you found it helpful. All the best in your journey!

I can’t say that I have any specific recommendations for orthopedic nurses. Get familiar with the surgeons preferences that you work with. Every surgeon will have their own little quirks. Try to get their specific protocols in written format and ask about what things they’d like to be notified. Hope this helps.

Thank you

My pleasure 😊

Thanks!

Go for it!

Thank you for viewing. I am glad you are finding the videos helpful. To answer you question- it depends. I learned a lot of the exams as a certified athletic trainer prior to going to PA school. I also teach them in the orthopedic physical exam lab at my alma mater. Even then, most don’t become comfortable with them until use in actual practice.

PAs in orthopedics do not generally earn as much as the surgeons, but they can potentially earn equal or more than some non-surgical physicians, such as primary care, pediatrics.

Thanks!

Wish you a speedy recovery! Thanks for viewing and commenting. Glad you found it helpful.

I got Knee bar’d at a jiu jitsu competition and heard a click in the lcl. Now my knee just buckles randomly .

Wish you a speedy recovery! Thanks for viewing and commenting. Glad you found it helpful.

Ouch! Sorry to hear about your injuries. I certainly would recommend follow-up evaluation and treatment recommendations by a qualified, local medical provider. Best wishes for speedy healing.

UPDATE: While seeing a chiro for a diff problem, he examined my knee. He suggested deep massage of the lateral quad of the effected knee. It has helped so much. Stairs are only a minimal challenge now.

Thanks for commenting Hank R.. I am not familiar with that publication and do not have a copy available to review. Just looking at what samples of the text that I can find online, it looks like a pretty concise and thorough text. I'll have to dive more into that one. Thanks, again!

I should preface my answer by noting that the videos I create are for educational and informational purposes only, and not intended to diagnose or treat any specific individuals medical condition. Any suspected condition should be evaluated and treated by a trained and licensed medical provider. To answer the question in general terms...There are many reasons that any joint can have a mechanical click or pop. In the absence of injury or pain, they generally do not indicate significant pain. If the mechanical symptom is associated with injury or pain, it is more concerning and would warrant close monitoring or further work-up.

Thanks for viewing and your questions, Nick. As far as one’s individual schedule goes, that is ultimately up to the employer. Some are very rigid and there is no flexibility. You would work when they say you work. Others may be more flexible and work with you to set a schedule that’s more accommodating to an individual employee’s needs. There are all different kinds of positions out there. Currently, I work three 12 hr shifts a week, including every other Saturday. My group also has solely weekend positions (F,Sa,Su) too. The percentage of PAs taking call was from that year’s PAOS (Physician Assistants in Orthopaedic Surgery) annual salary report survey. Whether or not a particular job requires call, that is something that the employer determines, and is usually not negotiable. Some employers pay extra for call and some include it in the salary. A PA searching for a position in Orthopaedics should inquire with all potential employers about the flexibility of scheduling and call responsibilities before coming to any agreement. And, always make sure that any agreements are included in the employment contract. It also never hurts to have an attorney review the agreement before signing.

So glad that you found the video informative. Thank you for viewing and commenting!

Hi Aryan. Thank you for viewing and commenting. I would love to address any question that you have, but I am unsure of exactly what you are asking. If it is relation to the orthopaedic physical exam text in the video, it is "Orthopedic Physical Assessment" by David Magee, who is a physical therapist. If that does not address your comment, please clarify, and I'd be happy to answer.

Sir abhi me 11th medical std me hoo. My dream is physiotherapy dr.

That’s fantastic! A good foundation in MSK medicine is such an asset to PAs in so many settings.

@@basicsofortho7351 i understand your point doc , but I don’t have any greater or better POC for this nearby that’s why I’m too nervous about this hoping it’s not serious

That’s fantastic! I’m glad to hear that Ortho is still a required rotation at the University of Arkansas, and the fact that you are excited for it. Thank you for that information, for checking out the video, and subscribing. Let me know if I can be of assistance.

Hi Farah. When I use the term pathophysiology I’m referring to the general mechanical forces or physiological response to those forces. In the instance of lateral collateral ligament injuries, pathophysiology would be a virus force or load to the knee that exceeds the strength of the lateral collateral ligament. When I refer to history, it is more of a specific mechanism or example of the pathophysiology, such as a soccer player that was tackled and struck from the inside of the knee. I hope that explanation clears things up. Please, let me know if you have further questions. Thanks for watching the video!
