UMKC PA Program

UMKC PA Program The UMKC MMSPA program is dedicated to graduating competent PAs and advancing the Physician Assistant

The MMSPA program is a seven-semester program based in the UMKC School of Medicine. Students enrolled in our program benefit from the extensive medical education resources offered by the School of Medicine, such as the Youngblood skills lab, Health Sciences Library, and Medical Education Media Center. Our Kansas City location is in the heart of the city offering access to community health centers,

academic medical affiliates, and surrounding rural locations, allowing the program to offer a wide variety of settings that serve diverse patient populations. The ARC-PA has granted Accreditation-Continued status to the University of Missouri School of Medicine-Kansas City Physician Assistant Program.

Who would’ve thought these kids would be spending their days studying, practicing skills, and seeing each other basically every day?? 🤍
