Choosing a profession is one of the most important decisions one has to make. I want to be a doctor. This profession is one of the oldest in the world. This job requires a lot of skills and knowledge. In my opinion, only those ones who truly want to help people can become good doctors.
They do not just listen to the patient complaints. A doctor has to make a diagnosis and give a prescription. And this cannot be done without an appropriate training and high level of professionalism.
There are both advantages and disadvantages in being a doctor. First of all, you do not have weekends or holidays. You have to work at nights and change your plans because of an emergency call. Another disadvantage is that sometimes you have to deal with fatal illnesses. It can be very stressful.
However, there are more advantages than disadvantages. Everyone treats doctors with great respect. There are no limits for improvement in this profession. And the last, but not the least is joy and gratitude of a recovered patient.
