Damn, that's tough. Working in a new field must be hard enough, but it must be even tougher when no one understands why it exists or values it's existence.

Yeah, it's tough. Some genetic counselors are finding success in private practices, or at hospitals with a younger group of doctors who aren't already accustomed to doing all the genetics work themselves, but I'm already well integrated in my new career, and don't want to try going back. It's good to see things are getting better, but non-MD hospital workers will always get pushed around by the doctors if they don't like what you're there to do.

Yeah I can imagine it would take a lot of energy to both do your job well and constantly justify its existence to your peers.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
