If the doctor is in psychiatry it could mean either:

Adolescent Psychiatrist

Academy of Psychiatry

But if the acronym is really PA, then it means the person isn't really a doctor at all, they are a Physician's Assistant. In many states PA's have limited prescribing privileges and can do some of the simpler diagnostic work. But they have not been to medical school, and don't have the depth or breadth of training of a real doctor, so shouldn't be referred to as doctors.
