Re: Nursing and then Medicine: Wrong profession?

I spoke with a couple MDs during my critical care rotation, who said that they may have gone into nursing if they had to do it again. Maybe they were trying to make us feel better about their decision, but one anesthesiologist I spoke with said he spent 6 years training beyond medical school. I think it takes a very dedicated person to go that route, but if that course of study gives the person inspiration, than it is worth it. People that undergo that course of study for the money and prestige are more prone to unhappiness, because they see their time spent as a waste perhaps.

I am a paramedic. After seeing with all the nurses have to put up with MD is looking good.
