I ask because I have received the impression that it is - I mean, emergency room physicians are essentially the first to deal with whatever ailment people have when they come to the ER. But I also mentioned this recently to a friend that is in medical school, and she balked at the idea that emergency medicine is a field of primary care.
I have been writing some of my secondary answers with mention that I want to pursue primary care, with a particular interest in emergency medicine. Should I not refer to EM docs as PCPs, or do you guys think this is fine?
