Physicians seeking careers in primary care had as many job offers as specialists for the first time in years, according to the latest survey of physicians finishing training in New York and moving into the work force. Primary care doctors received an average of 3.7 job offers, compared to 2.7 in 2002, the Albany (NY) Times Union reports, based on a study conducted by the Center for Health Workforce Studies at the University at Albany. Job offers for specialists declined slightly to 3.6, compared to 4.3 in 2002.
