[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think you should do it, but consider the time and money ramifications considerably. Really read back on the Student Doctor forums, ask questions, and see if you can get a real idea of how grueling and intensive medical school will be. It is a great forum and they will help you, but you need to be prepared that the information you find out won't be favorable towards pursuing a career at 30.

That being said, my husband is a military doctor and he is starting his career relatively late (36, first year of residency) but being in the military means he's in fantastic shape and can do the physically demanding duties with no real issues. It's nice not having to worry about money and having a huge student loan debt over our heads, but military medicine doctors aren't getting paid the same as their civilian counterparts, and there isn't a lot of stability either, especially if you have a family.

Think about all of your options, especially monetarily. You are definitely not too old to start. [/quote]
