Hello.
I am having some trouble with the whole MD or PA decision. I would like to practice medicine, this is a fact. But, I'd like to be a provider to populations overseas in rural communities etc. I want to travel. Does anyone know anything about PA's in Global Health? Or can only MD's practice abroad? I'm hesitant on MD bc of all the commitment and I'd like to travel. I don't want a family, I just want to practice medicine and travel the world, lol, I don't need a house/apt. Is PA good for global health? or MD my best route? I'll be applying for the MD/MPH or PA/MPH when the time comes. I just need help with which is best for the lifestyle I want to pursue. Also, do you know any programs for the PA/MPH that would be good for global health? I'm a senior in college so I'm slightly panicking about all this.
