Of the physicians surveyed, 32% opposed recommending their children become doctors because they feel that the profession is changing for the worse. Agree?
discovered what makes physicians tick at work and home. But with all of the ups and downs of being a physician, we wanted to know whether doctors would be pleased if their children followed in their professional footsteps. Or would they prefer their kids steer clear of wearing the white coat?
Of the physicians surveyed in the US, 53% have 1 or 2 children, and 37% have 3 or 4 children. In addition, physicians told Medscape that 34% of them already have children who are doctors or are in the process of becoming a doctor. "I would not recommend my path to others, especially children. I believe it is something you should really want, as it can take a heavy toll at times in work-life balance and empathetic exhaustion."
"My 19-year-old is Pre-med. I neither encouraged nor discouraged him. I guess I am rare, but I enjoy the practice of medicine and think I have a great job."Medscape wondered whether physicians' support or opposition to their children becoming doctors was based on their child's gender, but 90% of physicians surveyed said they feel the same way regardless of their children's gender.
