The apocalypse happens. Your supplies run short and you don't have much food left. Luckily, you are a physician. In return for medical service, people will share their food with you. However, all you have is a limited supply of standard hospital resources. There is no power and just about every perishable and non-renewable resource is gone.

Now here's the question: if you were the physician in this scenario, which speciality would you hope to be?

I would hate to be a radiologist in this situation [emoji39].

I would say emergency physician.

Psychiatrist - Manipulate the minds of the mass, create army, take over all left over supplies, live like king.

Family medicine. Most often utilized, therefore I get the most food. ER takes a close second.

Nice interview question! I may steal this one.

Hahaha, I'm glad you like it! I really just wanted to discuss which speciality is most practical without the heavy equipment or intense resources.

Two specialties you can do anywhere in the world without overhead are Psychiatry and OMT.
