So how tough of a time do Physicians and Surgeons have when it comes to dating and being with those they love?

Winter is beautiful.Winter is beautiful.


I am not a doctor or physician myself, I work as an engineer, pursuing an MBA. I don't really keep close with my doctors but I have heard that doctors have a very tough time hooking up with good looking women because of their very busy work schedule and they rarely have time for social life.

ON THE OTHERHAND I have heard that doctors have an easy time getting all sorts of women, I heard about an Indian doctor that went to Brazil and married a beautiful looking Brazilian woman. I was just wondering.

Lets say you had a doctor who was Indian and wanted to date or experience dating lets say a Latin woman, would he have a very rough time because of his work schedule?

**hypothetically speaking, I know, this is quiet a disturbing question because you guys are more mature and all that and get question concerning serious things but this is a curiosity I have always had

I know few physicians who once finished residency work truly unusual hours consistently. My acquaintances in the field (and I have many) work about he same number hours (albeit sometimes at different times) as other higher end professionals. (I have seen studies that support that assessment).

This is no longer the era of Marcus Welby, M.D. the solo practitioner who is available 24/7. Physicians usually practice in groups to share coverage/calls etc. Often they have CRNP's and PA's who do rounds, do weekend office hours, answer customer calls on weekends/holidays. etc.

Those who choose 80 or more hour weeks do so because they want to, are driven, are greedy, can't believe anyone else can do their work. They are the same as the 100 hour per week CEO. they canot be forced to do that.

They tend to have longer more frequent vacations and attend more conferences than other professionals I know. (Event planners know physicians attend more conventions/convocations than any other occupation followed by bankers and insurance industry executives.)

Its a demanding field, very highly paid, responsible, prestigious: I never heard of any who couldn't find a woman.

These are just my observations based on a lot of close associations over many years. My observations are not scientific.

My brother practices medicine as well as two first cousins and a good number of assorted clients.

In summary, getting a woman should be little problem if you are a decent guy.
