Reply to comment by scarface123 in Proposed legislation would allow NJ's advanced practice nurses prescribe without a doctor’s oversight: Proposal would cement a change that began with pandemic; some doctors are strongly opposed by rollotomasi07071

I have worked with enough nurses and doctors that I completely disagree. It's just my opinion but I stand by it. Most doctors I have interacted with in hospitals were either overworked people who are only barely hanging on to their sanity or an old fuck who's not really interested in the patient's beyond here is what you need, pay on the way out. Not to mention still believe outdated information on things they should have continued to educate themselves.

underscore the old fuck who's not really interested and emphasize that's exactly why NPs are appropriate solutions for almost every routine medical issue. we already let them deliver babies and administer anesthesia--there's nothing more life and death that that.
