  1. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    PA-C, DO replied to VickyRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I certainly hope you do not believe that any NP has more medical training than a physician. Shall we compare here? 1) All physicians have a bachelor's degree first, and at least 75% of them have...

    Nothing that a good exam under Versed can't

    Fergus, you are out in left field. You do not learn pathophys as a resident. You learn it in medical school. You may get some clinical concepts related to path reinforced in residency, but...

    See Randy, we have more in common than you thought. I was a corpsman with Marine infantry for 4 years and spent the entire GW campaign on the ground in a damn hole! can I say that here?? :) I have...

    Hey Randall, I appreciate your assumptions about my age and background, but unless you are elderly I doubt you have much up on me. I was putting in chest tubes in combat while you were wiping noses in...

  9. Physician Hostility

    PA-C, DO replied to blake's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have no doubt that NP's satisfy patients, often to a level better than physicians. I have no doubt that NP's spend more time with their patients and make them feel more special. I did all those same...

  10. Physician Hostility

    PA-C, DO replied to blake's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think physicians just cannot possibly understand how an NP can even feel comfortable practicing solo medicine. I mean come on, even right out of residency a physician is very green, and often needs...

    PA-C, DO replied to blake's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The reason that physicians are hostile toward NP's is that NP's attempt to seek more autonomy when their training does not prepare them to be solo providers. The pathophysiologic knowledge necessary...
