Hi, i've been reading extensively on the forums the past week in considering my career choices. I've come across a post that I am wondering if others would agree with here.
The writer is a Medical Student who says medicine is about memorizing stuff and being able to spit it out when needed.

That doesn't sound too bad to me. Basically that is saying your given a complicated problem to solve (like Math) and you have to apply formulated rules to guide you in your process to solve this problem.
Now i'm not saying this is all that being a Doctor is about. In the very same thread I read other replies that I agree with. I believe that different people have different careers they enjoy and even in the same thread, you can read the replies of Doctors who are happy with their choice and ones that say "Run away!".

I also believe there are many things you should enjoy to have a great career. In the very same thread another person tells of how you are invited to the intimate lives of patients, little difficulty getting a job, automony, and get to solve complicated problems. That sounds amazing for me!

So I was hoping to get some insight on how a Doctor who is finished with all their medical school, if seeing patients is basically determining what the problem is, apply rules of the universe, and finding a solution using those rules?
