[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Currently primary care doctors make 250-300 k and no one wants to do it. They try to get doctors to work out in rural areas for 600k and no one wants it. If anyone would be dumb enough to become a surgeon with 300k student loans and the hell they go through, I wouldn’t want them as my surgeon. This is America- most smart ppl want to make good money.[/quote] $300k is good money. And the issue isn't that people don't want to be PCPs- it's that specialists make so much more money. Basically, PCPs, in some cases, are slightly underpaid, while some specialists are grossly overpaid. So people are attracted to the grossly overpaid positions if they can get into them.[/quote]
