Hi worth2try. Have you considered becoming a nurse practitioner rather than a dr. as mentioned in previous posts? You really might want to consider that. Our former neighbor is now in her master’s program for that after working several years as a nurse in a hospital setting.

My husband and I both see a NP as our primary health care provider. She is WONDERFUL. She started a group practice in our suburban town, which now has two NPs, DOs, and MDs. She is very popular as a health care provider here and doesn’t take new patients any more. She’s made a great life for herself (has three children) Just something for you to think about.

Another friend of ours is a physician’s asst. ¶ and also has a good career.
