regrets?

I searched to see if a similar topic was posted here before, but I couldn't find any, so i was just wondering: Do any neurosurgery residents or attendings on this board regret their decision?

One of the survey questions was, "Would you choose this specialty again?" 89.66% said yes, 3.45% said no, and 6.9 were undecided. Pretty solid...I think OB was like 55%, Derm was ~96%...

i don't think a survey of 29 people accurately reflects overall satisfaction within a speciality.

i agree. nonetheless, those survey's (they have them for virtually every field) are a great resource and bring to light considerations many may not think of all that much. there are larger samples for other fields

ok, but until 29 practicing neurosurgeons come on here and reply, I think it's the best answer 🙄
