I left primary care two years ago. I start my fellowship in Palliative Medicine in July.
I am waiting for that obnoxious poster to chime in about doctors and how they make incomes in the top five percent and other sophistic rubbish. As if somehow online bloviation will convince anyone that there are also very high costs in that profession, something you don’t see on the income side of the balance sheet.
So where are all the takers for this bonanza of a field? Could the reality actually not be as flush as all that?
