You most certainly can. You can work in Emergency Medicine, Critical Care (ICU), Pediatrics, and on and on. It is a varied field right now. If you have any other questions, please let me know. Good luck!
Thanks for the very helpful answer!! I appreciate it:D

Can you specialize in NICU?

You most certainly can. It only depends on some of the state practice laws and the hospitals themselves. When I worked in the ICU at my hospital (adult medical ICU) we had 3 Physician's Assistants and a Nurse Practitioner that worked in night rotations so that we had one of them there at all times of the night shift from 7pm-7am. It was very cool and they got to do a lot of cool things. But, not every hospital has that. On the bright side many are starting to adopt a policy like this, so it is definitely possible
