Do all vet students want to become board certified, or are there some who actually want to be GPs? Lately I've been getting the feeling that general practice has a bad rep and isn't anything that anyone should aspire to do. That anyone who has any interest in having an enjoyable, meaningful, and financially stable career must desire to be a specialist -- not that everyone will try or everyone will gain board certification, but that not wanting to go there is somehow "less" or only for those who aren't motivated or talented.
I've been a general practitioner for over 15 years, and I think it's a terrific place to be (in the profession). It's not "less" and it's not easy, at least not if you're doing it right. And financially it can be good, if not better than good (location and specifics dependent).
Are there any vet students who want and respect general practice?
