What kind of Doctor should sir_captain become?

Edited on Sun Mar-21-04 12:30 AM by WillyBrandt

I vote Plastic Surgeon. Beyond the promise of seeing different kinds of breasts (by different, I mean before and after), it's well paying and puts you in contact with the rich and famous.

2. Not I. I might need a shrink in a few years, but I'm happy so far.

4. Dermatology

I'd presume there are few emergencies, night calls, and lawsuits. I could be wrong, but I knew a Dermatologist once who was free enough in the evenings that he could act in community theater. Not many physicians could have that in their schedules.

6. ROCK 'n' ROLL DOCTOR....s'the choice for me!

Well I'm sick and tired of hearin' 'bout the world and it's hang ups
Gonna get m'self together
Take a ride down town

Gotta see MY rock'n'roll doctor
Gotta see him see him today
He's gonna blow me away

He make me happy when I'm feelin' down
Take away my worry takes away my frown

Gotta see MY rock'n'roll doctor
Gotta see him see him today
He's gonna blow me away

If you wanna feel groovy
Give the doctor a call
DOCTOR ROCK WILL HELP YOU ANYTIME AT ALL!!

8. I vote...

... a surgeon specializing in giving people with a defect inner ear their full hearing back (and yes, that's me - twice through surgery & twice without a result).

9. Emergency Medicine (ER Doctor)

That's where I'd go. Set hours. No on-call. Good experience. Experienced staff around working closely with you. The best and most calm doctors I know and work with work in ER. Work 12-24 hours at a time but you get it over with and done. It's a good fundamental area to get experiences, too.

13. I concur

You could even volunteer for the gov't program that puts newly minted docs in underserved comunities. I forget the name of it. But there are so many rural counties in the US who don't have a doc of any sort.

15. I've been considering just that, actually...

It's both a good thing to do and helps with all the loans

17. Endocrinology

People get fatter and more diabetes every day. It is a chronic disease, so the better you make them the longer you have them as patients.
