In you opinion: What is the best Medical Specialty for Travel? Meaning, which specialty allows a physician to incorporate international travel into their career ?
Neurosurgery would not be the specialty to go into if you want to be involved in caring for underserved people overseas as neurosugery care typically requires specialized equipment not available everywhere.
However, some neurosurgeons do volunteer their time in helping with neurosurgery training overseas. The Foundation for International Educations in Neurological Surgery (www.fiens.org) sends people to underserved areas of the world.
Ophthalmology has a lot of international opportunities. 15 minute cataract operations restore sight instantaneously (www.uniteforsight.org/intl_volunteer)
