PA Student Preceptors: Physician Assistant Clinical Rotations

Precept Now helps physician assistant (PA) students find licensed clinical preceptors anywhere in the United States, and helps clinicians who want to teach connect with students who need rotations.

Find a preceptor as a student or join free as a preceptor.

What PA rotations involve

PA students complete supervised clinical practice experiences across core areas of medicine during the clinical year.

Common rotation settings include family medicine, internal medicine, emergency medicine, pediatrics, women’s health, general surgery and behavioral health settings, plus elective rotations.

Who can precept PA students?

PA students are typically precepted by physicians and experienced PAs, and in some programs by NPs; your program sets the preceptor requirements for each rotation.
