Hi all, I posted a few weeks ago about myself, my history of cancer, and subsequent divorce and board failure.
Unfortunately I failed yet again.
As I had feared and anticipated, I was told my contract won't be renewed next year, and so I'll be out of a job.
I don't think I have the drive for pathology anymore, and I'm seriously thinking of walking away from path- 2 fellowships, a few book chapters and several publications, conferences and presentations later- with no regret.
I always wanted to be a family physician ever since I was a kid, perhaps this failure is a huge signpost that's guiding me to that end. Although I've been out of med school since 2003, I know I have the capacity to do well in clinical medicine, especially because I've been harboring a deep dark desire to leave the coldness of the scope and glass for a while now. Maybe it's just now that I have the cojones to admit it?
Anyway, I welcome any sincere advice/insight that you may have.
Love and God bless,
