Hi there!
I've had a look on Prospects (it's quite a good website for career searching!) for a Physician's Associate role and whilst they do say that a typical degree subject includes chemistry, you do need to do further training at a postgraduate diploma (PGDip)/Masters level regardless if you're taking a life sciences degree or not.

Hope that's helped!
