Yes, physician assistants can conduct history & physical exams, diagnose, decide treatment, and write prescriptions. Most PAs diagnose and treat patients without direct guidance from their supervising physician. PAs go to school for anywhere from 6-7.5 years, compared to the 8 years of a physician. The biggest difference is that the physician goes to do a residency to ultra-specialize in their speciality whereas PAs are versatile and learn a broad base of knowledge so PAs can go anywhere.
The physician is there for guidance and generally more complicated cases that PAs might have questions on, but most PAs practice with some sense of autonomy.
