Current med school applicant here. While I enjoy medicine, I have recently come to realize how important it is to me to to have family time outside of work. I have even been contemplating switching to dentistry purely for lifestyle reasons...but there's a part of me that doesn't want to let go of the medicine dream.
I stumbled upon the idea of part time work or job-sharing. Does anyone have any insight on how practical it is to work as a part time FP? Is it possible to make a comfortable living that way? All I really want is to know that I can be financially secure without sacrificing quality time with my future kids.

you can make around 60 to 70 K per year as a part time FP. You can work out of an urgent care center or start a house call practice or work for a regular practice part time or do locum tenent work.
