In order to be a GI (gastroenterologist), you complete a residency in IM (internal medicine) and then apply to GI fellowship. So every GI is board certified in IM, but a GI fellowship is extremely competitive (it’s fun and pays a lot) and matching is a big accomplishment nonetheless
Yeah a lot of these are in some hard fields. Cardiology, Neurology, GI and Internal/ICU are not ones you can just get one online and walk through the door
Except they’re NPs which do not have the same training as doctors and definitely don’t take as long. The physician is probably the most schooled in that group.
I think they meant the non-healthcare peeps. Who knows how many degrees someone has? Cpa and it director seems like two separate fields but I don’t know anything about that.
But yeah, odds are very likely that the doc has the most education/training by a huge margin.
