Hi- Currently AMG 2nd year cardiology fellow considering EP vs Invasive vs Non-invasive +/- Devices-->
I know that's pretty schizo. I have a hard time grasping what I want to do with my career but I do see my self generally working in a medium to small size town in a private practice setting or associated hospital system.
I've been considering doing EP and the EP PD essentially has offered me a spot for a year and a half (6 months of 3rd year with 1 year extra) so as long I make a decision within the next month or so- he also is allowing me to consider just doing devices for 6 months my 3rd year.
I'm wondering how marketable and feasible is it do be a non-EP/non-invasive guy that does devices with level II echo/Nuc/CT versus doing diagnostic cath (which I know there are plenty of interventionists out there that would be happy to do)? Anyone hear of successful general cards doing devices?
