I do not have 100% conviction towards a specific fellowship. For now, my interest lies in CL, CAP, Forensics.
As I'm halfway done with residency, I'm still torn on how I should go about my career.
Psych is unique that it doesn't require a fellowship. Many regret wasting a year of attending salary as they do not practice forensic, CAP, etc upon board-certification. I personally know few child psychiatrists who does 100% adult.
Does anyone specifically regret NOT pursuing fellowship after their residency?
What would you have done differently?
What opportunities were you closed from due to not having fellowship?
Is it wise for job security as the field of medicine is quickly changing? APN, midlevel creeps, etc.
Is it financially wise to pursue fellowship? ROI make sense?
Looking for some words of wisdom from those who have been in my shoes.
Thank you
