Medical services provided by physician assistants may include, but are not limited to, obtaining patient histories, performing physical examinations, ordering and performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, formulating diagnoses, developing and implementing treatment plans, monitoring therapeutic interventions, assisting at surgeries, providing counseling and education, and making referrals.
