I am just into my 3rd year but I am interested in Emergency Psy and C/L Psy. Some of my professors have mentioned to me that I should do a combined IM/Psy. I was thinking about the Psychosomatic fellowship if I definitely wanted to do C/L.
Both are 5 yrs. Would doing more IM make me a better C/L or the fellowship? I am thinking the fellowship.
I am not seeing how the IM part would help me consult on Psy better. And I do not see how I can really work in both fields. Only in academia. Seems like wasted time and effort for no compensation for your extra training.
I am more leaning not to do academia due to the BS. I like to teach but hate the BS.
Any thoughts from those with experience of what would be best? Is there additional training for emergency?
Just trying to get some more input..........thanks
