It's ridiculous.
I am one year in and ~$50,000 down. By the time I'm done I'll have over $200,000 in loans/interest. THANK GOD I didn't have any from undergrad.

And they wonder why no one wants to go into primary care.....

Wow.

My med school friends tell me that med school is much more expensive than other programs, but seeing it typed out is crazy.

Kudos to you for sticking with wanting to be a primary care Dr. (the cost is a huge disincentive for some.) There is a huge need for good physicians who are interested in it.
