[quote=Anonymous]I Have a friend that is a NP. She had her RN/BSN...and then went back for more training and a masters for her MSN. Plus she had a residency of sorts at a doctors office. So, they DO GET ADDITIONAL TRAINING AND SCHOOLING. They arent just RNs that woke up one day and say..."Gee, I think I'll be a NP today"... In addition, I see NPs and PAs at my various doctors offices. Often they have seen much more than a doc has because they tend to be in the "trenches" more than a doctor has in certain cases. They are friendly and much better in bedside manners. If its serious, by all means ask for a doctor. But if it were for a minor issue, I would not hesitate to see a NP.[/quote]
