Hello everyone. Let me first say that this is perhaps the most useful forum on the net and that the individuals on it provide exceptional and highly relevant advice. So my hope is that you all could give me some advice on my current situation. Right now I currently have two years remaining until I obtain my pharmD, but am becoming very disenchanted with pharmacy as a whole. Is it really worth the schooling to go out and work under such high stress conditions, or put up with long shifts without any breaks? Yeah you might make $85k per year, but is that really that much when you have people with a 2 year RN degree or dental hygenists making just $10-20k shy of that and (usually) not having to deal with the same level of stress or responsibility? Right now I am looking at dentistry and do not even know if it is worth finishing the pharmD. Could some of you please give me some positive insight, because I seem to be surrounded by negative feelings toward pharmacy. Thanks guys.
