I am currently a senior in undergrad. I will be graduating August 2016 with a B.S. in Biology. I aspire to become a Pediatric Anesthesiologist. However, after taking my physiology course, I realized that I want to also one day teach Human Physiology as a teacher.
How would I go about doing this? Should I go to medical school and residency first, obtain a DO or MD, and then go back and get a masters and then a PhD to teach?
I was looking at the MD/PhD programs and they seemed interesting, but are they geared mainly towards individuals interested in practicing medicine and doing research? Or are they also for those interested in practicing medicine and teaching?
