So glad to hear of your success. From what I know about FP and what you have said, it sounds like it would be right for you. Many FP's do minor surgical procedures, I think a lot of your scope of practice may depend on what part of the country you live in. My sense is that FP's in more rural areas do more OB and surgery. Well keep us posted, and so glad things are working out! PS maybe some day you will get to deliver a baby in the Urgent Care setting, you never know!!!!

So glad to hear that such a very stressful situation worked out for you! I'm sure it will continue to work out, no matter what path you choose. Good for you for making a great decision for your mental health! If you have any questions about doing FP with OB, especially in the Northeast, feel free to PM me!

Glad to hear you are doing so much better! You were wise to get out of ob/gyn when you did--I am navigating that course(as an ob/gyn attending) for the many of the reasons you mentioned. It's great to hear things have been working out for you! Best wishes to you and your family.
