NPs are supervised, as are doctors on rotation, so it's 7 years before clinical practice for a doctor.

PAs might love to hear about that, since they’ve been lobbying about supervision.

Dozens (I gave up counting) of states have absolutely no supervision for NPs: https://www.aafp.org/family-physician/practice-and-career/ma... - they have full autonomy as providers.
