ANSWER There are so many initials today it gets confusing!! An M.D. is a medical doctor. A P.A. is a physicians assistant, who generally has more training than an R.N. (registered nurse.) A D.O. is a doctor of osteopathy who has as much training as an M.D. but is more in tune to treating the WHOLE person, not just the illness. Then we have R.N.A.P.R.N which is a registered nurse who have extensive training and works closely with the doctor as the P.A. does and also can write prescriptions as can the M.D. and the P.A. Hope I didn't confuse you further!! <<<ADR>>>
medical doctor, physician's assistant

An MD (Doctor of Medicine) would have "PA" behind their name if they have completed a fellowship or additional training in a specific area, such as "Palliative Care" or "Pediatrics," which is sometimes designated by the initials "PA." However, it's more common for "PA" to refer to a Physician Assistant, which is a separate professional designation. If an MD were to collaborate closely with a PA, they might include it in certain contexts, but it is not standard practice for MDs to use "PA" as a designation after their name.
The initials PA listed after an engineers name has no meaning. However, the initial PE listed after an engineers name stands for Professional Engineer.
