In healthcare a shift is occurring. I wonder is it Arizona the USA or the world? The MD is going away. The psychiatrist is going away. The psychologist is going away. In their place? The nurse practitioner (NP) and the doctor of nurse practice (DNP). What factors into this shift?

I'm not sure what to read into your use of the word excellent Michele as it could be either sarcasm or truth LOL

Yup, I get the privilege of seeing a PA for the co-pay of a doctor.

The vast majority of them all in my long experience and so damn types of healthcare professionals it is impossible to know how many there have been. Possibly 100 or more. Of those about seven did not harm and only one figured it out and managed to incredibly extend life.
