No way specialties:
Peds, and I have a kid - but only MY kid is cool
I don't like brats, and I don't like other kids snot all over my sleeve uggg
IM: stab me in the eye before I see another "78 yo F PMH/o CHF, stroke, IDDM, CABG, HTN admitted for CP"
Neuro: I can't stand rounding as long as IM but then doing all of nothing for the patient - get another MRI
Family: Would be cool if I made more than 50K take home
Surgery: BORING- cut and sew, cut and sew, I don't know anything, I just cut and sew FORGET IT! I didn't learn this stuff to let it all fall by the way side, plus I'm not standing on my feet for 100 hrs a week and never seeing my family when I'm well into my 60's
Pyssing contests annoy me too, which are inevitable at every grand rounds/M&M conference
Heme/Onc: Too sad for me - no thanks
Great specialties:
OBGYN if you take away the gyn - I only like the pregnant ladies, the gyn part (std's, gyn/onc, etc) ugg - too gross
Psych: wooo hooo, my specialty save the depressed whiney Axis II's-but ya gotta love schizophrenia or developmental d/o and autism
