the debt doctors

what is with misconceptions about the doctors?

I just read an article in the NYTimes about how doctors are overpaid, and been rejected. Doctors must devote a decade of life to get a degree, and is probably the most difficult field to pass. PLUS, the average doctor has 200K of debt in medical school. Usually work 60 hours or more per week and cons earned every penny they make. policy of cuts in wages and promotion Insurance companies are manipulative jerks shit not know the half. In any case, their insurance companies are thieves. feel someone?

My best friend has just started his residency. It has a $ 250,000 debt and completed his residency and a fellowship in medicine in the next 7 years … to be about 37 years before she got a job as a "real". I can not imagine that much money and not even have a house. One of my former roommates had a brother who completed his residency in emergency med. It was estimated that between his salary and the number of hours required to work an average of $ 1.25 per hour. Once a physician completes his home and become a participant, you can start making money "real" … but meanwhile, the rest of the world of work has been of about 10-15 years ahead to start building a life, buy a house, support a family, etc. In addition, the rising cost of malpractice insurance (which is in my state now … $ 10,000 per year?) Further reductions in their wages. Most people think that your doctor gets the bulk of the fees charged by … nothing could be further from the truth … after the Medicare fee schedule allowed "safe" and pay their own staff, have the opportunity to leave with a very low percentage.
