Physician Assistant, Whole-Person Care Across Primary, Urgent & Mental Health

**Experienced Physician Assistants: Come Practice Medicine the Way You Always Meant To** **Aayu Clinics, Chicago \| Full\-time \| $129,000 to $175,000 per year** You didn't spend years building your clinical judgment just to spend twelve\-hour shifts processing bodies through a conveyor belt. You became a PA to think, to reason, to actually care for patients as whole people. If that instinct is still alive in you (even after the burnout mills tried to grind it down), we should talk. Aayu Clinics is a well\-rated, 7\-day primary care practice built around a simple idea: great medicine happens when smart clinicians are given the time, the intellectual environment, and the support to do their best work. We are looking for a handful of exceptional, experienced PAs who want more than a paycheck. We want the ones who never stopped being students of medicine. **An Academic Practice, Not a Numbers Factory** **Most clinics treat continuing education as a checkbox. We treat it as the center of gravity.** **At Aayu, clinical growth is structured into how we practice, not squeezed in around it:** * **Physician\-led case conferences** where we work through complex presentations, diagnostic dilemmas, and the calls that don't fit neatly in an algorithm. * **Literature deep\-dives and journal reviews** that keep your practice genuinely evidence\-based, not just current on paper. * **A CME curriculum built around family medicine board\-level depth**, so your knowledge keeps broadening across the full range of primary care rather than narrowing over time. * **Direct, ongoing mentorship from our Medical Director, Dr. Abhi Shinde**, who invests in his clinicians as thinkers and not just as staff. This is the intellectual rigor of an academic environment without the ego, the gatekeeping, or the exhaustion. If you have ever wished you had colleagues who wanted to talk through a tough case at a level that sharpened you, this is that place. Built for the Way You Want to Grow **Ex
