Myth 1: General Practice isn’t a specialty Myth 2: You’re just doing GP for the ‘lifestyle’ Myth 3: General practice is easy!

Myth 4: General practice is just coughs, colds and referrals Myth 5: GP’s don’t earn much money Myth 6: General practice is all touchy-feely

Myth 7: GP’s don’t do any procedures  Myth 8: General practice is dominated by old, male GP’s  Myth 9: GP’s sit in a boring clinic all day and don’t practice exciting medicine

Myth 10: GPs only picked general practice because they didn’t get into any other medical specialty That's it. That's the thread. ✌️
