What to Expect During the Onboarding Process of Your New Job Artwork

Your PA Mentor - From Physician Assistant Student to PA-C

Welcome to Your PA Mentor podcast. I am Sami Ngo, your host and fellow Physician Assistant, and I am here to help you navigate your way to fulfilling PA career. At 26 years old, I landed my dream job as a brand new graduate right out of PA school without even realizing it. All because I had an incredible mentor who guided me through my first few years as a clinician.My mentor completely changed my life and how I practice medicine. He didn’t just teach me clinical medicine. He taught me how to love the art of medicine, how to develop work/ life balance, how to avoid burnout, and most importantly. how to truly love and continue to love my profession. Because of him, I became the confident Physician Assistant that I am today. And that is why I have made it my mission to help PA students and new graduates navigate their way through the Physician Assistant profession with advice, strategy and tools to a fulfilling career as a PA.
