I’d rather have an NP 10 times out of ten for primary care
- TylerE 2mo agoIf you're more or less healthy they're fine. When things start to go sideways my experience is that they get out of their depth pretty quick.
- abeindoria 2mo agoEh. There's a reason the entire noctor subreddit exists. NPs have their places. Replacing doctors with them isn't it.
- Loughla 2mo agoWhile they definitely serve a purpose, primary care is not that. If you present with anything other than healthy and fine, the ones I have had to see are less than helpful. They simply do not have the depth or breath of training as a doctor. They're very good at executing a plan as part of a care team, and even making changes to that plan based on patient need. But they just simply aren't as good as doctors. There's a reason they're replacing doctors. . . They're cheaper. That's it.
