Who We Are
Physician Assistant Recruiters is a member site of MedicalRecruiting.com, Inc., a healthcare recruiting network founded in 2006 by Blake Moser and headquartered in Tyler, Texas. The parent company operates a focused portfolio of specialty-specific recruiting brands — MedicalRecruiting.com, AdvancedPracticeRecruiters.com, NursePractitionerRecruiters.com, NPRecruiters.com, PhysicianRecruitment.com, and Medical.Careers — each dedicated to a single clinician category.
PhysicianAssistantRecruiters.com is the network's PA-dedicated site. Every recruiter assigned to this brand works exclusively on physician assistant searches. We do not split attention between PAs, NPs, RNs, and physicians, and we do not treat physician assistants as an afterthought to a broader staffing book. That single-discipline focus is the entire reason employers choose us over generalist agencies, and it is the reason candidates return to us when it is time to make their next career move.
Leadership & Team
Blake Moser founded MedicalRecruiting.com, Inc. in 2006 after several years inside large healthcare staffing firms, with a deliberate goal of building specialty-specific brands rather than yet another generalist agency. The thesis was simple: clinicians and the employers who hire them are best served by recruiters who only work on one type of clinician. Two decades and tens of thousands of placements later, the network model has consistently outperformed broad-spectrum staffing firms on time-to-fill, candidate retention, and client satisfaction.
Our PA recruiting team is built around senior recruiters with multi-year tenure on physician assistant searches, supported by sourcing analysts who handle credential verification, NCCPA database research, license confirmation, and onboarding logistics. Every PA candidate we present has been screened by a senior recruiter, not a junior intake coordinator. Every employer engagement is owned by a single point of contact from intake through start date.
Our Recruiting Process
Our process begins with an intake conversation that maps the supervising physician relationship, the procedural mix, the case acuity, the EMR environment, the call schedule, the compensation philosophy, and the team culture. We refuse to skip this conversation even on tight timelines because almost every failed PA placement traces back to a misaligned expectation that should have been flagged at intake.
From intake we move into hybrid sourcing — proprietary AI surfaces credential-verified PAs across job boards, NCCPA directories, professional society membership lists, accredited PA program alumni networks, and our own opted-in candidate database, while a senior human recruiter handles every screening conversation, every reference check, and every employer presentation. Candidates we submit have already confirmed interest in the role, the location, and the compensation range.
Through interviews and offers we coordinate scheduling, prepare both sides with context, debrief after every conversation, push back on out-of-market contract terms, and shepherd credentialing and start-date logistics. After start date we stay engaged through the first ninety days. Our PA retention at the one-year mark consistently outperforms industry averages, and a meaningful share of new searches comes from PA-to-PA referrals.
Geographic Coverage
We recruit physician assistants in all 50 U.S. states plus Washington, D.C., with active client engagements in every major metro market and in rural critical-access hospitals. Our largest concentrations of placements are in Texas, Florida, California, Arizona, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York, but we maintain credentialed PA pipelines for less populated states as well — Wyoming, the Dakotas, Vermont, and Alaska included.
For employers in rural and underserved markets, our coverage extends to coordinating relocation, helping candidates navigate state-specific PA scope-of-practice rules, and identifying PAs eligible for federal and state loan repayment programs. For PAs willing to relocate, we routinely help compare offers across markets on a real cost-of-living basis rather than headline salary.
Network Membership
Physician Assistant Recruiters is part of the MedicalRecruiting.com, Inc. recruiting network. Sister brands cover nurse practitioners, physicians, advanced practice clinicians more broadly, and the network's general healthcare recruiting hub. That cross-network footprint matters for two reasons: employers can engage one trusted partner across multiple clinician categories, and clinicians benefit from a single network that genuinely understands every part of the modern care team rather than a single-credential silo.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who founded Physician Assistant Recruiters and when?
Physician Assistant Recruiters is a member site of MedicalRecruiting.com, Inc., founded in 2006 by Blake Moser. The parent company is headquartered in Tyler, Texas, and operates a national network of specialty-focused recruiting brands including MedicalRecruiting.com, AdvancedPracticeRecruiters.com, NursePractitionerRecruiters.com, NPRecruiters.com, PhysicianRecruitment.com, and Medical.Careers.What geographic areas do you cover?
We recruit physician assistants in all 50 U.S. states plus Washington, D.C., with active client engagements in every major metro market and across rural critical-access hospitals. Our largest concentrations of placements are in Texas, Florida, California, Arizona, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York, but we maintain credentialed PA pipelines for less populated states as well.How do you source physician assistant candidates?
We use a hybrid AI plus human sourcing model. Proprietary search technology continuously identifies passive PA-Cs across job boards, NCCPA directories, professional society membership lists, alumni networks of every accredited PA program, and our own opted-in candidate database. Once matches are surfaced, an experienced human recruiter conducts the screening, credential verification, reference checks, and presentation to the employer.What kind of employers do you work with?
Our client base spans community hospitals, multi-state health systems, academic medical centers, federally qualified health centers, large private practices, urgent care chains, surgical specialty groups, telehealth platforms, occupational medicine providers, and aesthetic and wellness practices. We also work with physician-owned practices in every specialty and with private equity backed platforms that are scaling PA-led care models.How is your firm different from a generic healthcare staffing agency?
Generic staffing agencies cover everything from medical assistants to physicians and tend to treat physician assistants as interchangeable with NPs or RNs. We are PA-specialized: every recruiter on the team focuses exclusively on physician assistants, our database is built around NCCPA credentials and specialty-specific procedural skills, and our intake process maps every search to the supervising physician relationship and scope-of-practice norms in that state. That specialization translates into higher-quality slates, faster fills, and far stronger candidate retention at the one-year mark.
