The idea that psychiatry is a "back up" specialty or simply for those "who can't cut it in real medicine" gets a lot of attention. We often find ourselves defending why we're "just as good" as other doctors. But what about the idea that what we do is actually more difficult then other specialties? Given that I find psychiatric work more "natural" to how I think then other specialties, it is difficult for me to make a subjective statement on this. But it's something to think about...The following commentary is interesting.
