About this listen
This episode explores what the first year of Physician Associate training is really like. We look at the intensity of PA education, the academic and personal challenges students face, and what helps when balancing study, placements, and life outside the programme. The conversation also touches on GMC regulation and how students view the future of the PA role in UK healthcare.
Host David R Leonard is joined by Eman and Anmol, two students from Brunel University’s 2024–26 Physician Associate cohort. They share honest reflections on starting the programme, adapting to its pace, and the rewards that come with progressing through Year One.
A grounded discussion for anyone considering the PA pathway, currently in training, or wanting a realistic insight into the demands of becoming a Physician Associate.
