"When many cures are offered for a disease, it means the disease is not curable" -Anton Chekhov
''Once you tell people there's a cure for something, the more likely they are to pressure doctors to prescribe it.'' -Robert Ehrlich, drug advertising executive.
"Opinions are like sphincters, everyone has one." - Chris Rangel
When asked what choices they would make if they could complete their education again, only 37.6% indicated they would choose primary care. Over one-third (33.8%) indicated they would choose a surgical or diagnostic specialty, while 28.6% indicated they would not choose to go into medicine at all.
This is sad. No wonder the number of medical students entering primary care is down. If the doctors they meet in the course of their training are so obviously unhappy, you can't expect them to chose the field. posted by Sydney on
