So I decided on Anesthesia late in my third year. I like the procedures, the acute care, no rounding with a team, and the phys/pharm. Yes, I'm aware of the gloom and doom for anesthesia but there was nothing else I was remotely interested in and I wasn't going into a specialty that I wasn't crazy about. With that said...
I just started my intern year in the ICU and I'm not really feeling it. Is this a red flag that I won't like anesthesia? I know with anesthesia there are different routes you can take as far as academics, Private practice, different fellowships, etc. Do any of these routes give me the option of never working in an ICU? I want to either do peds anesthesia, go into PP or strictly work in an OR.
