Physicians On The Search For Better Pay And Opportunities

If you are a medical school graduate who finished in 1955

, then you will be able to grab golden work opportunities and secure jobs in nice places with very good salary packages. But then one of them wasn't as auspicious as the rest. While he is a medical school graduate, opportunities for a less competitive job market never came and he found it offering low pay and stability.

Once perceived as a prized profession, doctors have less freedom and the previously revered doctor patient rapport has been polluted as managed care grabbed a stronger hold of this market. Nowadays, many of these medical students learn where they shall be conducting their postgraduate residencies. Matching day can be celebrated by the students who find themselves assigned at their chosen hospitals. This is an awful reality check for those who are not as lucky when it comes to their career opportunities.

Medical schools and doctors are just too many nowadays, based on a survey. Many doctors, in fact around 10 percent of them who specialize in their fields could barely find jobs in their area related to their fields as derived in a study done by the American medical association. A private firm funded study suggests the wholesale closing of many US medical schools due to doctor surplus as well as for these schools to admit 20 to 25 percent less students.

A medical institution located in Boston, which also serves and teaches medical subjects for a university stated that they will retrench many unfortunate doctors. A doctor who is also a dean of a celebrated school of medicine states that back then things were not as gloomy as they are now for doctors. He adds that there were tons of positions available for those who wanted to pursue specific fields. For the years that have passed, many graduating medical students choose to get into the generalist fields like internal medicine, paediatrics or family practice for these have been in steady growth since 1990s or earlier.

Specialty areas such as anaesthesiology, psychiatry, and diagnostic radiology are on the downtrend, states the national resident matching program. For example, the number of students entering anesthesiology has dropped dramatically. One senior medical student said he considered anesthesiology until he realized it may be difficult to find work. He states that the opportunities are scarce nowadays. However, a member of the American medical association, a female physician, counters the facts that there is a surplus of doctors for in many places like rural areas where she lives, they are badly in need of more physicians in the community.

She furthers that many among the cr?me de la cr?me do not venture into the medical profession thanks to the unfavorable things that they hear about the doomed medical profession, even if they do not know what the truth really is. Even with the high level of uncertainty, many new doctors are hopeful thanks to the widespread shows with medical themes that make people appreciate medical school. This female doctor still puts her profession on a pedestal saying that it is still the best job in the world despite the fact that they no longer make the money they used to make or work under the autonomy those before them used to have.
