Abstract
Burnout is well-documented among physicians and nurses before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Little is known about how burnout affects physician associates (PAs). Due to the nature of our training, PAs can morph and adapt to different disciplines of medicine, as well as the ever-changing needs of the healthcare system. This narrative review discusses the background of burnout, the causes of burnout in PAs, and what can be done to combat and prevent future burnout.
