Physician Assistant Jobs in Oregon: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a physician assistant in Oregon?

You must hold a current license from the Oregon Medical Board, which oversees physician assistant licensure in the state. To qualify, you complete an accredited master's-level physician assistant program, pass the PANCE administered by the NCCPA, and submit a licensure application to the Oregon Medical Board. Oregon also requires physician assistants to hold a practice agreement with a supervising physician, though the specifics depend on your clinical setting.

How much do physician assistants make in Oregon?

Physician assistants in Oregon earn a median of about $155,780 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $123,100 for the lowest 10% to over $198,490 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire physician assistants in Oregon?

Employers hiring physician assistants in Oregon right now include 77 Consultants, Concentra, and OnePeak Medical, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Oregon's largest health systems, including academic and community-based networks, drive the majority of consistent openings across inpatient, outpatient, and specialty care settings.

Which Oregon cities have the most physician assistant jobs?

Portland, Salem, and Bend account for the most physician assistant openings in Oregon. Portland leads because of the concentration of large health systems, specialty clinics, and Oregon Health & Science University, while Salem and Eugene reflect strong regional hospital networks and growing outpatient demand serving surrounding communities.

Are there remote physician assistant jobs in Oregon?

Yes, but they're rare. About 15% of physician assistant openings tied to Oregon are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting that most PA work requires direct patient contact. The exceptions tend to be telehealth roles in primary care and behavioral health, where Oregon-licensed providers conduct virtual visits for patients across the state.

How can I get hired as a physician assistant in Oregon with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is a new-graduate residency or fellowship program, and Oregon Health & Science University runs one of the few formal PA postgraduate programs in the Pacific Northwest. Providence and PeaceHealth also onboard new graduates into structured primary care and hospital medicine roles. Candidates who hold an active Oregon Medical Board license, a signed practice agreement, and NCCPA certification stand out, and those with clinical rotations completed at Oregon sites often convert to job offers through those same systems.

Where can I find and apply to physician assistant jobs in Oregon?
