What career should you choose then?
I love learning and I would be happy to go to medical school and have all the knowledge and expertise. However, I've shadowed about 10 different doctors among 3 different specialties and so far, there is very little patient interaction or procedures, mostly just following up with residents and documenting or putting in orders.
I am a new grad nurse, and I want to work a few more years before I consider advancing, but I was thinking about NP or PA. Well from everything ive seen, PAs get better education, especially with clinical hours, but this sub is discouraging as far as mid-level providers go.
PAs, NPs, MD/DOs, I'd love to hear you opinions on whether any of the fields are worth pursuing more than the other. Is it possible to be a great midlevel, that can perform at their scope and is a specialist, or at that point would it just be more worth it to pursue medical school?
