Practice Manager

Physician Associate

Physician associates are trained medical professionals who work alongside doctors and nurses in hospitals and primary care. They have completed a university degree to qualify for this role. At Box, all our appointments are triaged by a GP, so the patients seen by a PA are chosen as being appropriate for them. A GP will always be available to supervise a PA.
