Hi everyone! I am entering my senior year of undergrad in september and more than anything I want to work in a medical field. I want to work with people to help them live healthier and happier lives. I know that sounds kind of cheesy but that is simply what I want to spend the rest of my life doing. I have been set on applying to medical school but I know that it is a huge commitment, as is any healthcare related field but particularly medical school because of the long education. I have also been interested in applying to PA programs because I think it terms of starting a family that might be a better option for me. I respect both profressions so much and would be honored to be accepted and complete either but I also know that when it comes down to it I see myself with a husband and a few kids. And I think with each profession it is possible and I think with either one I would be happy. Are there any mothers out there who are either PAs or physicians who were in my position and can tell me what made them choose their path? That would be great! Thanks so much and good luck to everyone!
