From recent JAMA study, link

According to the
JAMA study, residents in these five medical specialties experienced the highest percentage of career-choice regret:
- Pathology—32.7 percent.
- Anesthesiology—20.6 percent.
- General surgery—19.1 percent.
- Neurology—17.4 percent.
- Psychiatry—16.9 percent.
Pathology and anesthesiology, however, had a low prevalence of burnout. The low prevalence of burnout among pathology and anesthesiology residents signals that career-choice regret might be due to other factors.
LOL, I wonder what these other factors are? Getting pooped on by surgeons on a daily basis? CRNAs who think they are doing a better job than you? Attending who micro manage the **** out of your case?
