As a general practice student, I wonder if there really is a future for GPs?

You have to measure yourself. Your own hobbies, your own conditions, and especially your economic conditions. First of all, hobbies are the most important, because studying medicine is a difficult process, someone else's flower, your own grave.

Secondly, the economic conditions may not be superior, but the economic conditions must not be delayed, otherwise, the study of medicine will be physically and mentally exhausted.

You need to know more about medicine than just studying medicine. Medicine is a discipline that cannot be measured, and it is a career that needs to be fought for all your life. The development and progress of medicine is always related to the quality of life.

If you want to concentrate on your studies, medicine is for you. If you like to explore the mysteries of medicine and like to pursue it tirelessly, then medicine is for you. Medicine needs not only your passion, but also your persistence.

In the long run, there is definitely a future, because this is the trend in developed countries. Although the development of general practitioners in China is not yet perfect, there are many criticisms. However, judging from the relevant national policies for general practitioners in recent years, it is quite promising.

In addition, the aging of the population, the rapid development of social economy, and the increasing improvement of people's living standards will become the catalyst for the development of the general practice industry. But this prospect also takes time to materialize, and no one can say exactly when it will happen. So if you want to be a general practitioner, you still have to think carefully.

General practitioners perform the health services of general practice. Also known as family physicians or family doctors, they are the main providers of health management services. GPs have a unique attitude, skills and knowledge that make them qualified to provide continuity and comprehensive medical, care, health maintenance and preventive services to every member of the family.

General practitioners are generally generalists who deal with common, frequent and common emergencies on an outpatient basis. Another feature of the work of community GPs is the home service, which often takes the form of home visits to deal with patients at home, setting up their own family beds and their own medical files according to the different conditions of the patients.

In China, the development status of general practitioners.

In China, more than 90% of medical students have become specialists after specialist education and training, while the number of general practitioners is relatively small. What does it feel like to be a GP? "The top three are proud, and the general practice is ashamed," a sentence that very accurately expresses the embarrassing position of the current domestic general practitioners.

In China, general practice is still a generally difficult profession that lacks the support of business models. In this article, we will talk about the current situation and prospects of general practitioners, and at the same time refer to the development model of foreign general practitioners to present a comprehensive picture of general practitioners. ”

In recent years, the development of general medicine and the training of general practitioners have been highly valued in China.

From 2012 to 2014, the number of general practitioners in China increased from 109794 to 172597, and by the end of 2016, China had trained 10,000 general practitioners. The numbers are rising, but unfortunately, the total number of general practitioners accounts for only 100,000 of the total number of clinicians. Achieving the target of 2 to 3 qualified GPs per 10,000 inhabitants remains challenging.

1.Utilitarian speaking, just on the issue of money, I think that general practitioners in more developed areas, even if they are at the level of small town health centers, are more than enough to support themselves, the basic income is about the same as that of teachers, the work is also larger, the hospital is much more idle, the quality of life is relatively high, they will not be busy like ants on a hot pot every day, and the work pressure is average, but the income is definitely not as much as that of specialists, especially the long-term income, there should be a long plateau.

2.As for the business volume, now that the society has entered the aging stage, the source of the disease is certainly not a problem, and most of the elderly have many organ problems, and more general practitioners are indeed needed to guide the use of drugs and prevent and treat diseases.

3. Get to know some general practitioners in very primary health centers, who are promoted, have relatively lower professional requirements, have more free time, carry out side jobs well, and have a much higher quality of life than doctors in general hospitals.

Those who do not understand the prospects of general practitioners need to think carefully.

1.Income differentials for GPs.

The general practice industry is the most different in the medical industry, from the free diagnosis and treatment of barefoot doctors who are completely public welfare, to the medical circle of Shenzhen that attaches great importance to the development of general practice.

Annual salaries range from 9,600 yuan to 300,000 yuan. The specific income depends entirely on the current medical situation of the city where it is located.

2.Who and what is the status of GPs.

Because they are mainly at the grassroots level, they often deal with poor households, and sometimes they need to go to the homes of patients with limited mobility to treat them. Because the general practice is not psychologically accepted by the masses, there are basically internal and external women and children in the districts and towns.

In addition, many grassroots units do not have general practitioners at all, and the so-called general practitioners are transferred from specialist doctors for training. Even if there is a general practitioner (such as a targeted medical student program), the unit does not pay attention to it and does not know what the general practice does, most of them think that they are intern doctors, and they are assigned to the departments needed by various township hospitals and become specialists.

These realities determine income instability, and patients will prioritize economics and whether to save money. It is completely different from the diagnosis and treatment idea of specialized medical treatment that pursues the best best results.

Even because patients can't afford to buy drugs with the best efficacy, they can only buy some drugs that are not recommended by diagnosis and treatment guidelines, or that are extremely large and have been eliminated, just to save money.

Coupled with the hype of **, **medicine has become synonymous with black-hearted medicine, and some doctors in some hospitals do have **reported situations, and they have also been punished accordingly.

For most drugs, surgeries, and means, the so-called "expensive" after upgrading will actually have less. Many new drugs are not covered by medical insurance.

Of course, I also heard from my colleagues that there are also well-developed towns and villages, and it is said that there are ICUs, and their surgeons can also perform joint replacement surgery. However, in most towns and villages, surgery is their shortcoming, and most of the male students in general practice will be assigned to surgery after returning to the unit.

3.Relationship between GPs and other specialists.

GPs are specialists themselves and can also be transformed into other specialists. There is a lot of discussion about the specific path of the general practitioner, so I will not repeat it here.

In the township registered practice unit, there can be three. County-level medical units, registered scope of practice, can be two. The current registration of a general practitioner must have a general practice certificate.

Another special kind of general practitioner, called village general practice, is a village doctor, with a simple examination and different certificates. In the strict sense of the word, a general practitioner can only be considered if he is qualified in 5+3 training.

In short, because of the misunderstanding of the name general practice, I think it is general practice, so everyone in the medical circle dares to call themselves general practice, but there are almost no qualified general practitioners.

The general practitioner is responsible for the first consultation and after he or she is unable to handle it himself, he or she is referred to a specialist for further treatment**. Once the specialist is stable, he or she is referred back to a general practitioner.

In recent years, the country has been demand-oriented, and the group of "general practitioners" has gradually received attention, and the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly proposed: strengthen the primary medical and health service system and the construction of the general practitioner team. In January 2018, the General Office of General Affairs issued the "Opinions on Reforming and Improving the Incentive Mechanism for the Training and Use of General Practitioners", which clearly stated:

General hospitals that have been identified as standardized training bases for resident physicians should strengthen the construction of general practice professional bases, increase the number of general practice medical diagnosis and treatment subjects, independently set up general practice departments, carry out general practice clinical, teaching and scientific research work for the purpose of personnel training, and jointly train general practitioners with primary medical and health institutions." The policy has been getting better, family doctors are actually general practitioners, China's family doctor system is not mature, but in the context of China's hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, family doctors will surely occupy a place in the future. If you don't want to enter the system and want to work hard for your career, a general practice clinic is also a good choice.

In the "Opinions on Reforming and Improving the Incentive Mechanism for the Training and Use of General Practitioners" issued by various provinces, support for general practice clinics is mentioned. In addition, individual general practice clinics are also encouraged to undertake national basic public health service projects, if the general practice clinic undertakes the public health activities in the jurisdiction, it will increase the stickiness with the residents, and at the same time obtain various national subsidies can better establish their own brand, expand the influence of the clinic, which is very beneficial to the future development. GPs are the future of the grassroots.

I think it's more future-proof. Because I am a general medicine student, I must also be a general practitioner in the later period, so it must be a very good job, and the future is also very promising. So choose the right subjects and work hard, and you will definitely have a very good future.

A: We think that as a general medicine student, his future is also very good, and it is worth looking forward to and optimism.

Human society has always needed the profession of doctors, and the profession of doctors is in demand and delicious. Therefore, as long as we study hard and study well in our majors when we are in school, and master excellent skills, even if we are general medical students, we can still find ideal jobs in the future when we go into society, and their salaries are good. What is even more proud is that the profession of doctors is very respected and respected in our society.

It's certainly good to be a GP and requires a lot of medical knowledge to be competent. However, the medical profession is hard, and the rest time is not fixed, which can be very tiring. Of course, the salary will be very high, the social status will also be very high, and saving lives and helping the injured can also be respected by everyone, and general practitioners will certainly have a future.

I think the future of general medicine doctors is not necessarily very good, now for refinement, specialization requirements are getting higher and higher, the surgical industry has a specialization to say this truth, so the general professional doctors may be more popular, of course, it also depends on the problem of ability!

General practitioners are promising, especially in primary care settings.

A few years ago, it was proposed that large hospitals should also be equipped with general practitioners, because the current departments are too detailed, and patients do not know which department to go to when they enter the hospital, so it is imperative for hospitals to be equipped with general practitioners, which brings great convenience to patients.

The future of general practitioners is still very good. GPs are usually more knowledgeable and have more knowledge. There are a lot of understandings, no matter which hospital it is, it needs a general practitioner.

There is still a future because China's primary medical industry still needs a large number of talents. But it also depends on the level of medicine mastered. A general practitioner is a clinician who has obtained a general practitioner qualification certificate and works at the grassroots level, providing high-quality, convenient, cost-effective and integrated primary health care services to individuals, families and communities, and carrying out the whole process of life, health and disease and all-round responsible management of doctors.

Although the general practitioner itself has high requirements for the medical field, and it will have more choices, as long as you work hard, you may succeed in your own field, and then which department in the future medicine has development, as a general practitioner can be involved, so you can choose this department as a doctor, so as a general medicine student, there is also a future development.

If you are a general practitioner and I think you have a bright future, you can say that you are a generalist in the hospital, if your medical level is very high, you can be competent in any department, then as a general practitioner, your future through your own efforts is very promising.

Yes, I am also a doctor, and in the future, general practitioners need more and more, because the condition is complicated, basically there is no simple hospitalization for one disease, and it is often mixed with several diseases, which needs to rely on general practitioners.

There will still be good room for development for general medicine students. As long as the students who study medicine work hard to achieve success, they will find a good job, and the career of the trainee doctor is very hard, but he is respected and treated very well, so he is very developed.

General practitioners certainly have a future in the future.

GPs mainly work in community health centres and reach out to the residents of the community.

At present, the signing of community doctors has been carried out, so a large number of general practitioners will definitely be needed in the future, so this profession will be very promising in the future, take 10,000 steps back and say that you don't want to work in the community, you can also work in the pension community in the future, after all, the three most promising industries in the future, medical care, education, and pension. Doctors are needed for both pension and medical care.

So I think GPs are very promising in the future.

In recent years, the development of medicine is very profound, and the lessons are very detailed, but at the grassroots level, there are many diseases involving multiple departments of internal and external pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, so a large number of general practitioners are needed, and large hospitals also need to have general medicine, because many diseases belong to this department and also belong to that department, so the general practice is the counterpart, so the future of general medicine is very good.
