Not only do you have this vast amount of new clinical knowledge to put into practice, you’re also learning the ins and outs of how a clinic runs (for better or worse), and adjusting to being the place where the buck stops. Is it really surprising that you are wondering if it gets better?It’s a kind of taboo topic, even though it’s a common question that most NPs ask (if only to themselves).
