title: UKAPA--a professional organization for the United Kingdom.
abstract: As an organization, UKAPA has just begun its development. A handful-sized group is the beginning, just as a handful of PAs started the AAPA many years ago. The British medical system is one that can be joined "by invitation only," and UKAPA is attempting to make ourselves known in order to garner those invitations. We have achieved some small successes, and we hope to soon gain wider recognition both in the United States and in the United Kingdom.
