I love high-stress situations where decisions have to be made on the fly, so emergency medicine seems like the only option. I would pursue trauma surgery, but I can't deal with the 75+ hour weeks and extra-long residency PLUS that fellowship. Soooo what are the best and worst parts of being an emergency physician? Hours, pay, average time with patients, etc.
I also heard that trauma surgeons run the trauma bay and get all the cool cases. What type of patient would an ER doc see the most?
