[quote=Anonymous]Why would anyone in their right mind pay a concierge fee for a NP? That is ludicrous. The minimum amount of education a NP needs is a Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) — about 2 years to get their RN Then there are RN-to-MSN bridge programs that take 2-3 years. So that could be 4-5 years after high school. Let's say the NP actually has a BA or BS then it is 6 years after high school. A MD/DO is 4 years of college 4 years of medical school 3 years of residency for Family doctor/pediatrics/internal medicine That is 11 years of education Look at the Clinical Training Requirements: A key difference is clinical training hours: Physicians usually complete 12,000–16,000+ hours during residency. NPs typically complete 500–1,000 hours in graduate training.[/quote]
