[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He could be a paramedic / nursing assistant / nurse there's plenty of jobs in the medical universe with the chance of progression and they don't all start with DOCTOR. I have been in hospital enough times to recognize the talented people versus the untalented ones. Sometimes its the nurse practitioners who are the ones spotting the details and saving the lives. [/quote] Sure, sometimes. That is not the norm. NP and PA training only covers basics and not the rare diseases or abnormal/unusual human reactions to illness. Docs have 3-5 YEARS more training than midlevels. That is why they work under the supervision of an MD. On their own they do not have the scope of training to diagnose anything atypical. [/quote]
