Med students have to jump through an unimaginable number of hoops to prove that they will put up with anything because they are supposed to be hungry to save the world, humble in the face of nature, and smart enough to get a top percentile on a never-ending series of standardized admission and licensing exams.

By the time they're actually working in the field, it's: Did you fill out that insurance paperwork so the hospital can get reimbursed? Good, here's the next stack of paperwork to fill out so the hospital can get reimbursed ad infinitum. How fast are you seeing patients? Any more than 20 minutes is too long. We don't have staffing levels to support that. Nurses are over-ratio, but try not to kill anyone with a mistake.

It is a strange job at leqst as a gp. What profession gets paided so much, given so much respect and than expected to work like a fast food cashier?

This results in legally defensible treatment but not necessarily the treatment you really need.

Hopefully the system can fix itself.
