It’s slightly different for Family Medicine.
you become AC only 3 years after FM residency.
And C only after completing another 2 year fellowship + doing quite a bit of extra work on top of clinical duties.
Just curious, which are the specialities that has oversupply of ACs? I am doing renal now, and my consultant keep lamenting that there are NOT enough specialist and that the renal department is super understaffed.
