CRNA Or Anesthesiologist ? Should I Transition ?

[KatiaRayanna]

Hi Guys !! I'm Currently In College For Nursing. I Want To Be An Anesthesiologist, But When I Jobshadowed One & An CRNA. CRNA Makes The Same Amount Of Money As An Anesthesiologist, The Only Difference Is One Is A Nurse & The Other Is A Doctor. CRNA Is Less Education Years As Well. My Plan Was To Become An CRNA For Awhile Then Go Back To School & Transition To Anesthesiologist. Based On What I've Read I Should Just Do My BSN, Work As An RN For A Year, Then Go Back To School For CRNA Which Is 2 Years.

Is Anyone An CRNA Or Anthesiologist ? Please Comment Your Experiences & If I Am Making The Right Decision.

They are both anesthesiologists...

One is physician anesthesiologist, the other is a nurse anesthesiologist

Go to CRNA school... Either way, you are going to be a doctor...

You must be new here. Just some warnings, one, a overwhelming majority of us are anesthesiologists or anesthesiology residents (and not CRNAs). Two, the people who come onto SDN tend to be the anal-retentive/cream-of-crop type (average test scores here run high) and are not pushovers like some maybe in real-life. Three: We will tolerate talk about CRNAs, but don't come swinging at us, if you don't want to get into a fight.

Closing. I suggest trying a nursing forum.
