Career Paths

Your career path will depend largely on the specialty you choose as a physician. "Primary care physicians are the doctors patients usually visit most frequently. They treat a wide range of illnesses and regularly provide preventive care, and they also enjoy long-term relationships with their patients.

Pediatricians, family practitioners and general internists are primary care physicians. Surgeons perform operations to treat diseases and repair injuries. Specialists have expertise related to specific diseases as well as body parts, organs, and systems. Cardiologists, oncologists, neurologists, and ophthalmologists are examples of specialists." –
