    Pathology: good compensation (especially relative to number of hours worked), diversity of knowledge, get to sit down and drink coffee/tea, very little call duties, and are absolutely needed to make a diagnosis so that clinicians/surgeons can complete their jobs appropriately. Also, very nice culture, don’t have a lot of insurance company interactions, and none of the headaches of dealing with “certain patients”….a hidden medical specialty that people are missing out on

    The anaesthetist and surgeon relationship sounds very different in the UK than the US. I don’t know if it’s because we’re much more heavily involved in critical care and leading the resuscitation of unstable patients around the hospital but more senior surgeons will frequently defer to trainees on a lot of aspects of patient care. If a surgeon was rude to me in theatre I’d call them out on it there and then.

    • @BreakTheSpell6
      @BreakTheSpell6 Рік тому +7

      Yeah it's weird aye. Where I work, surgeons are rarely rude to the anaesthetists (anaesthesiologist in the US). We manage their unstable patients that need to go to theatre so the surgeons are pretty pleasant to us.
      I'm not sure what it's like in the US though. It might be due to the sheer amount of private work in the US so the relationship might become a bit parasitic. I don't know why you would work in private with a surgeon you don't like, sounds painful, there's plenty of work to go around.

    Neurology is the best specialty. Physical diagnosis. Medical imaging. Complex array of pathology (more diseases than all other specialties combined). Cutting edge technology (multimodal imaging, biologics, nusinersen, intraoperative monitoring, etc). Real opportunity to connect with people and make a profound difference in their lives. What is a more meaningful career: helping people to walk the aisle at their child's wedding or helping people to achieve society's arbitrary beauty standard for ideal size of a given organ? ;)
