In today's episode, we tackle the question of . . .  interested in primary care. . . should you do family practice or internal medicine?  and what are the differences?   To answer this question we called on Dr. Jill Sisselman, a board certified family practice doctor and her husband,   Dr. Stephen who did a residency in internal medicine. The couple attended medical school at the New York College of Osteopathic Medicine (NYITCOM) after which they both chose residencies in primary care. . . but along different specialties!  After an unhappy experience with their first jobs, they decided to start their own  private practice! The Doctors Sisselman will both describe their  journey to Osteopathic Medicine, the trials and tribulations of a two doctor relationship, their experience with the couples match as well as give advice on how to rank  residencies as a couple looking at different specialties.  The Sisselmans share with us what their day to day lives look like and how they have made it possible to raise a family while running a successful business. We know you will enjoy this episode as much as we did!
