Going into Psychiatry but have little patience...

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I was previously going to pursue Trauma Surgery. However, I fell in love with my Psychiatry rotation. It was by far the only rotation that I didn't mind going to + easiest to interact with patients + most interesting + the list goes on and on. However, I still have the "surgeon metnality." In other words, I'm very quick with patients. 10 minutes with a patient is ideal for me. How much will this hurt me?

I think you learn patience as you learn that you must possess this virtue in order to obtain a true eval on your patient.
