full disclosure…I feel that the system is slowly teetering/breaking/collapsing
MD/DOs are getting squeezed on all sides but especially the primary care side of things. The docs aren’t being given adequate time to see patients in the office and I’m seeing more and more midlevels without adequate training serving as “primary care providers.” Unfortunately many of them don’t have a clue what they’re doing (not all, but many)…but hey, they’re cheaper to hire than physicians so the VC groups, insurance companies, and health systems like that.
so yes…im right there with you and get nervous about the future as well sometimes and I work in the biz
you ain’t alone 🫂
