Over the years, there has been some hesitation for physicians to work alongside nurse practitioners and physician assistants in their practice. But the reality is that most large institutions have made the financial decision to employ and use more APPs in practice. Your interviewers need to know that you are comfortable training in this situation. They hope their urology residents will be great team players alongside nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

"No issue at all for me. I'd be excited to work alongside and learn from your great team of Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants. They greatly improve patient access, which is a benefit to all. They are also very knowledgeable about procedures and can be a second set of eyes in many situations. Can you talk a bit about their scope of practice here at your institution?"

Your answer to this question can be a pretty short and sweet 'no,' you wouldn't have any issues working closely with APP staff while training during urology residency. To further solidify your response to this question, highlight some of the positive aspects that NPs and PAs can bring to a practice.
