i'm starting to get really scared about applying for a gen surg residency now...im not sure if it's cold feet or if im really not ready for that kind of lifestyle. i was contemplating anesthesia before and although i really loved my surgery rotations, lifestyle is a big factor in my decision. i love being in the OR and i love doing procedures. my biggest hesitancy with anesthesia was the lack of pt contact/continuity of care. does anyone have any opinions on applying to both residencies? my plan was this...i would gather the materials together for applying for both...recc letters, personal statement, etc...do some more electives in both...and hopefully by november know which one it is...and if i cant figure it out by november, then apply for both...what do other people think?
