My wife (internist) and I are thinking about traveling together. Has anyone known a husband/wife team (nurse and physician) at their facility? Or maybe a couple that have taken the plunge and went traveling? Trying to see if it's feasible. Thanks

Jan 22 I've not heard of nurse and physician couple in the same workplace either, but every other couple has essentially acted as if they were not together at first. Some workplaces make a bigger deal about it than others, so be aware of that. Some people think that there would be bias or favoritism
