Choosing a medical specialty is one of the most important decisions you will make throughout your medical career. That's why in this week's episode I go over your most common questions such as: when do you pick your specialty, what is it like choosing primary care versus a surgical specialty and how does your personality play a role in which specialty you choose. If you're a medical student or thinking about going into premed and you have more questions about choosing a medical specialty or about the journey of becoming a doctor in general, let me know in the comments below.
