So I understand this question is likely coming VERY early considering I haven't even applied to medical school yet.
That being said, I have recently been reflecting on all of my past experiences and the one commonality is that I've enjoyed educating. Whether that be educating patients I see, my peers, or the students I tutor.
Although for various reasons I wish to pursue medicine (enjoy working in a closely knit team and elevating those around me, caring for patients/family, and many others) not teaching.
I was wondering what the path to teaching at medical school was? Must I pursue and MD/PhD? Are there particular schools with opportunities geared towards this?
Sorry if this is a silly question but I couldn't find much other than pursuing an MD-PhD.
