I did except the position at the GI office. Initially, I was told I would only do colonoscopy screenings but so many people that come in for screenings have other GI issues that have to be addressed during the visit. I have found that some physicians are not exactly the best at training NPs and that made it hard during the first 6 months. I do feel more confident and enjoy my job. I definitely think you’ll gain more experience in GI, if you choose to take the position. Good Luck!

Thank you for your response. It was very helpful.

I am a recent NP grad. I decided to work in a specialty because I felt like a general practice would be overwhelming. I was offered a position in Gastroenterology and I was wondering if there are any NP's in this specialty that could give me any suggestions on how to learn the most important information and make the experience less stressful. How much training did the NP's get before they began to feel comfortable? Thank you for any suggestions.
