Nurse Practitioner 

A midlevel provider who went to school for 6-7 years. Many have an MSN but the DNP degree has been introduced to try to blur the lines with Physicians who instead train for a minimum of 11 years. NPs use this obscurity in an attempt to validate their claims for unsupervised practice. Additionally, many graduate nursing programs are degree mills boasting 100% acceptance rates and 100% online coursework. NPs serve an important place in healthcare but are best paired with a supervising Physician.
Nurse Practitioner: "I wanted to be a doctor but the MCAT wasn't open-book, so I went to the University of Phoenix MSN program with online exams".

Nurse: Yeah I've been, it's pretty good. I'm a nurse so I have a distinguishing palate.
