Hi Bernadette:
I'm a proud Mom of a recent medical school graduate 5/2018; now 1st year Resident Pediatrician.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) the job outlook for physicians in general is very good for the coming years (www.bls.gov). The BLS projected a 10% growth in employment for all pediatric physicians and surgeons from 2014-2024, which is faster than the average for all occupations.
