  9. All the degrees, no job

    This does not go only for doctoral level 'people'... It goes for everyone on the job market. Your attempt to establish a parity between MD/DO and NP is comical... All NP organizations have to do is to...
  10. All the degrees, no job

    I don't know how much more you want employers to pay an FM doc making 200k+/year or radiologist making 350k+/year... Why are you lumping the DNP degree with MD/DO? Do physicians have the same identity...
  11. Why DNP and not MD?

    It's not a big deal 'sauce'! I introduce myself to patient as a doctor all the time. 'I am dr. Perez, your social worker.' By the way, who wants to deal with orgo and physics when you can be doctor...

  21. Organic Chemistry

    Orgo and physics are weed out classes for med school... That's why they are hard. You always take a dig a NP's education whenever you have a chance. This is kind of strange coming from someone who is...

  23. reading EKGs- an advanced privilege?

    When you are in front of a jury, they want to know if things were done by an expert. Whether we like it or not, physicians are the expert on (almost) everything regarding medicine in the public eye....
