Maybe you wouldn't think that after 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school, a year of internship, and up to 7 years of residency and fellowship (maybe more), during which you've accumulated almost $200K in educational debt, and are working for less than minimum wage if one were to actually do the necessary calculations.
