Help With Premed Courses

I'm not so sure being a physician is such a good career these days...

I might be ignorant in this area, but don't they have assistants to enter this stuff? 

I hope these doctors can type fast. I've seen so many coworkers struggle with entering electronic data because they type slow, but I love it. I would enter my counseling notes as I was talking to my clients; it was faster for me and saved me from hand cramps. The clinic I go to for primary care has computers in each room allowing the medical assistants and physicians to enter information while talking to patients.

I go to the doctor regularly (diabetes management so min 4x a year with my endo, 1x a yr with my GP, 1x a year for ob/gyn, 1x a year for each kid, PT for a condition I had) and ALL of them used computers proficiently.  My 60+ yo endo and GP both just bring in a laptop, while the PT has laptops on rolling carts, kids' doc has computer in each room.

All of them are very good at talking to us, looking us in the eye, asking questions, then putting stuff in the computer as necessary.  Haven't felt like they were too busy on the computer to have a good appointment.

And, BTW - didn't they all used to have folders, and write all this crap down?  What's the difference between writing and typing?
