Physician assistant is the best job in America right now, according to a report from Glassdoor.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports these professionals — who typically practice medicine in collaboration with physicians and other healthcare professionals — make over $97,000 a year, on average.

And thanks to the growing need for healthcare services, combined with a shortage of physicians, PAs are in high demand right now. There are more than 45,000 job openings on Glassdoor alone.
