Employment of physician assistants is projected to grow 28 percent from 2023 to 2033, much faster than the average for all occupations. About 12,900 openings for physician assistants are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.
