Need to switch MDs from the wonderful one I've seen for several years due to moving; the only ones with openings are PAs and NPs everywhere I call. Go with PA?

Edit: should have specified PCP in post.

I figure it MIGHT be safe to go with the PA, given their better education, their supervision by a physician, and the fact that I'm a relatively healthy 32-year old who mainly needs prescriptions I'm already on managed. It's just sad that so many PCP MDs seem to be not accepting new patient. Is there an issue with residents not going onto primary care? I'm not a doctor so I don't know much.
