What's more fulfilling, NP or PA?
I know the differences between the two, but which one feels like you're actually helping the most?

I would say NP. Because you have more range and Authority Within a practice. Meaning as an NP you are able to work in an office without a physician on site. With PA's they need to have a physician on site. And peas can also open their own practice. As long as they have a physician as a mentor for their practice. NPS also have more Avenues they can work within the medical field. I believe a PA is a very good career under someone else's thumb. Meaning you're always having to answer to your physician. I hope this helps good luck to you in the future

As a PA, you finish with 1 license. As a APRN, it is your second license so you have the RN field open as well. I believe, after a few years of experience, they both are relatively the same. I have equal respect for both and my PA friends seem to get as much satisfaction as I do.
