EM seems to be a great field, except for the fact that it is shift work. I have been told that there is a great deal of "burn out".
Any comments on this?
Are there any good options out there wherein one can do residency in EM, but be able to practice another field as well? For example, one option is to do EM and also Family. Then, when one gets older and burn out kicks in, he/she can just practice family. The downside is that EM is a 3 year residency as is family--> 6 years is quite a long time to invest just to back up the possibility of burning out.
Any help would be greeeaaaattttt
