Hi, i hope this isn't a spicy topic for too many, but,
what are the big differences between plastics, specifically facial, and otolaryngology head and neck surgeons?
i am in my third year and have conducted research that i guess would qualify for both fields, but i can't seem to get a feel for which direction i would prefer to go
ent seems to offer the chance to do more clinical/pathologic related work, and has one year less of residency (5 v. 6), but i thought some insiders might have the scoop on jobs or whatever else i have missed
plastics seems to afford the diversity of the entire body if wanted, while ENT seems to have diversity of the head and neck operations performed (cosmetic, biomedical devices, cancer, etc...)
are the work hours, pay, patients, excitement, or general levels of satisfaction different between the two?
thanks for the help
