These physicians often work as part of a team coordinating care for a population of patients; they are less independent than solo practitioners of the past. Many physicians and surgeons work long, irregular hours. Almost one-third of physicians worked 60 hours or more a week in 2004. Physicians and surgeons must travel frequently between office and hospital to care for their patients.
