[quote=Anonymous]Surgeon's wife here. I don't have any answers for you. The crazy hours (overnight on call at the hospital) 14 hrs a day on the weekend and 80 hour weeks are sadly completely the norm for most medical specialities. They would work these kind of hours even if it were not required, I think. Most docs are possessed by their work--my DH, his brother and FIL are all the same with this (all docs) It is a lonely life for the spouses--Unless you could convince your spouse to take some kind of fed position--I don't see that ever changing.
