All PAs and ARNPs work under the umbrella of a physician. I prefer them to a doctor every time. They spend more time with you and actually listen to you. They’re knowledgeable and their expertise is outstanding. If your issue is above their heads, they will refer you to a physician or specialist. I trust them more than I do the physicians in Florida. I’ve had ARNPs save my life where the doctor didn’t catch the problem on more than one occasion. I’m a retired RN.
