Obviously, I know any speciality is going to involve a lot of work and that's something we have to be prepared for, but, in general, what do you believe the ones with the best hours are?
I believe unemployment offers a rather attractive vacation package
Dentistry
Actually, I hear the queues in the unemployment lines are becoming quite long these days! 10% unemployment and all
I'm surprised no one has said ROAD?
P.S. A queue is a line. No need to be redundant.
Thanks for the info! It's very appreciated! I'm aware that those two words are synonymous, I just forgot that I had already written queue and didn't reread before submitting.
Dermatology.
From 2004, but I think it's pretty much still true:

What exactly are the ROAD specialties again? I got derm and radiology
Radiology, Oncology, Anesthesiology, Dermatology is what I took it as, but who knows.
Some people also throw in emergency med and call it "E-ROAD" I believe.
I've heard this, also.
Just as ROADE (the E is silent )
What exactly is it that is so coveted about the ROADE (E-ROAD ) specialties? Is it good hours, good pay, relatively easy work?
I've heard this, also.

I think it's supposed to be a healthy pay/hours ratio.
Haha I like that...It reminds me of how I want to name my kids someday! Just to throw people off...Like name them Tmark...but the T is silent and then it will be funny to listen to people pronounce it!

Dentistry
Seriously, if you're that worried about hours you should sit down and ask yourself seriously why you're not applying to dental school.
If dentistry were a residency after medical school it would be pretty competitive. It's a good gig.

Anesthesiology and Radiology are lifestyle specialties but they do not offer good hours. They offer high pay and controllable hours but many can work close to 60 hours a week.

Yes, you need to recalibrate your "pretentiousness meter," old chap.
