In actual practices where everyone is adhering to their own schedules and patient appointments, you can't tell me that scheduling out for lengthy vacations and having early days when patient load is dead isn't a universal perk across both sexes. You would be lying if you did. You're projecting your dedication to the field, and believe me when I say that dedicated providers are a benefit to society. Not every practitioner feels the same.

That is a massive number of workers from outside of the country. It's going to make an impact on hiring practices. You can open your own, but that's got its own problems. Not only that, but private insurers and gov-ran insurance are going to cuck even harder with gatekeeper systems if they push the route of seeing mid-level practitioners over doctors. You seem pretty confident in your position, but I can't see how you wouldn't be affected by this in some way unless you're not practicing within America.
