What does a Doctor with the classification of pa stand for?

Professional Associate... It means doctor has joined with other "doctors" or medical associates in one office. There can be more than one location. There is almost always a corporation and in many ways it works like a law firm.

What doctors do radiologists work with?

Radiologists work with many types of doctors, which may reflect their subspecialty training if any. General radiologist most commonly work with emergency physicians, primary care physicians, internists and surgeons. Subspecialists such as neuroradiologists have more contact with neurosurgeons and neurologists. Breast imagers will have more contact with breast surgeons, pathologists, and oncologists.

What is the job outlook for radiologists?

Radiology job outlook seems good for now, but we can never know what will happen even 5 years from now. The average current salary is about 300,000. However, this is a balance between rural and metro areas. The urban locations may only offer positions near 200,000 and the schedule may not be as good. Some good groups only look for people trained at big institutions or at least have a fellowship under their belt. That means 10 years post-undergraduate training.

Remember, ALL medical professionals spend at least 3 more years training after completion of medical school. So that's 7 years minimum before becoming any kind of doctor that practices medicine. In all honesty, medicine will become a lowly field based on the current politics. I assume it will be dominated by vastly inferiorly trained foreign graduates (only inferior because their training climate is different than the US or advanced Western Europe nations). If you are a pre-medical student, I advise you to steer clear from medicine. Apparently, most Americans feel entitled to spend money on disposable novelty items (ex: Ipods, SUVs, Hannah Montana concerts) versus basic nutrient rich foods, medicines (generic, not pharma TV sponsored ones), and education. Primary care fields gloom will spread to the specialists. Then everyone will regret their 80 hour work weeks with unlimited liability.

Is a therapist a psychiatrist?

A psychologist is a person who has studied psychology (the study of the mind). Psychologists may or may not be therapists. Those who do therapy are known as Clinical Psychologists. Other psychologists are engaged in research and a variety of other pursuits.

A therapist has special training in forms of interaction with clients that facilitate helping them identify and deal with behavioral and emotional issues. Therapists may be psychologists, Social Workers, or have other training. Most psychiatrists, who are also medical doctors, practice therapy.

The essential difference is training and hours in the field. Before licensing, all therapists -- regardless of their basic discipline -- are required to have thousands of "contact hours" where they have been interacting with clients under the supervision of a licensed therapist. In addition to contact hours, a certain number of hours of formal training are required (often received as part of their initial or post-graduate work), and a comprehensive licensing examination must be passed.

We do not recommend dealing with an unlicensed "therapist," regardless of who they are or what experience they claim. This especially applies to clergy, who may be allowed to practice, by law, without having the requisite training to do a competent job.

Having used one I don't see how it could be left in for 6 months. They are not comfortable to wear.

Do orthodontist need a license to work?

A dental license for the state he practices in at a minimum. There may be additional requirements depending upon the individual state. In order to be a specialist in orthodontics (orthodontist) a minimum of 2 years of an orthodontic residency must be completed leading to a certificate in orthodontics. Some programs also lead to a Master's degree. The accomplishment of obtaining a Master's degree is performed by completing a research project, writing and defending a thesis. All programs, whether they are certificate programs or Master's programs require some research work, but a Master's program requires writing and defending a thesis. Which orthodontist is a better clinician? There is no difference in clinical skills. The difference is that the Master's degree enables the orthodontist to go back into teaching (academics) and/or to be involved in research if he or she so chooses.

Why would a surgeon choose to perform brain surgery while the patient is awake?

This may be chosen because the patient's conscious response to stimuli or voluntary actions must be measured to assure the appropriate outcome of the surgery and to influence the actions of the surgeon performing the surgery (as in, if the patient is asked to speak and the surgeon is operating in a part of the brain that controls these functions, if the patient's speech improves, then the surgery is successful - if the patient's speech becomes slurred or inarticulate, then the surgeon may need to do more or may need to stop now).

Why is it necessary for doctors to give organ transplant patient a drug called cyclosporine?

After undergoing an organ transplant, it is necessary for patients to take drugs called immunosuppressants for the rest of their lives. Cyclosporine is a commonly used drug for this purpose. It is extremely important that people who have had a transplant take this drug every day as directed because if they don't, their body may reject the organ. The body's immune system recognizes the new organ as foreign and it attacks it. Drugs such as cyclosporine will suppress the immune system so that it cannot destroy the organ.

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR QUEST.

Are doctors required to stop and administer aid to accident victims?

Generally, No, but check wikipedia's "duty to treat" page for more specifics, and states which are exceptions. Also, on international flights, at times (I believe over international waters), you are under the law of the home country of the airline (Australia has a duty to treat), so you may have responsibilities there.
