So sitting here trying to plan my future and thinking about residency. Weighing the pros and cons. I would really like to practice in a rural/ small town setting upon completion of school. From my hospital work experience in a major metro I would also like to target a career as a oncology, critical care, or emergency specialist. Are these things mutually exclusive, or is there some room/ demand for someone with these skills in rural healthcare centers? Are some state's laws more conducive to job opportunities for a specialist in these settings? What specialty (and not necessarily just these three) would be most in demand in a small town setting?
