[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both my spouse and I are sub-specialists in medicine and wouldn't/don't encourage our kids to go in to medicine or be pre-med. I don't understand why it is so in demand. The administrative grind, corporatization of medicine, unrealistic expectations of a "service industry" model, and overall lack of respect for clinicians is disheartening. This despite loving the privilege of being in patients' lives and their trust in us. [/quote] I don’t understand either. Spouse is a specialist recently retired. Tough, tough training, great risk taking, unrealistic expectations. The attorneys and business people we know do better financially Even top managers in the government do better for doing less work and taking far less risk on a daily basis. Yet, all these kids want to study neuroscience and go to med school. Why? [/quote]
