The class of 2006 welcomes you!!  We come from all over the country, and are proud to be the11th class of this great program.  The QU PA program is ranked 14th in the nation!  The mean PANCE (Physician Assistant National Certification Exam) pass rate for first time takers is 98% with a 100% pass rate in 2004!  Our 92 percentile ranking on the exam was above the national mean, 68%.  This program is full of dynamic professors who have invaluable clinical experience and who truly love to teach. 

Cynthia Lord, the director of the program, is very dedicated to this program an in making sure that we get the best education possible, in and out of the classroom.  We take pride in our community and offer many services to them.  We screen people, who may not otherwise go to the doctor, for diabetes and hypertension; we talk to people about the importance of a healthy lifestyle and how to obtain it; we teach people about the harmful affects of smoking and offer suggestions on how to quit; and much more.  Not only do we help people with medical needs, but we help those who are less fortunate too.  We hand out food and clothing to the homeless and we bring Christmas early to a couple of families who would not have had one otherwise. 

The program teaches you that there is so much more we can offer and is just as important as understanding the material taught in class.  This program is very time consuming, leaving little time for a social life, but in the end it will be worth every minute.

 

So take a moment to get oriented, learn a little something about us, who represents us and what we do for the community. See what we have to offer you and find out about the latest events.
