ok so thats not my real question. what I really want to know is if there are any current or aspiring pediatrcians, who can really tell me the 'everyday advetures' of a pediatrician. also does a pediatric diplomat make sense?
My dad is a Pediatrician.. and im going to be a pediatric dentist . Working with kids is the most amazing thing ever, I can assure you, everyday is a new adventure for those who loves kids and have the ability to work with them . Kids are fun to be with , they are all different .
Being a Pediatrician, is exciting and you have to be really good at what you are doing.. most kids won't tell you how exactly they are feeling, what hurts so you need to be smart enough to be able to give a good diagnose by a physical examination and the help of technology ( laboratory &technology) For being a Pediatrician it requires love and compassion, willingness to help others .It doesn't necessarily requires you being a genius, but being willing to work hard .
What's good about being a pediatrician? *You will be able to save lives *working with kids *how fun it can be *how you can be a kid with them * you will be able to manage your schedule in a better way compared to other kinds of doctors like a gynecologist, traumatologist who are called at midnight,on holidays all the time. * Your office won't be boring like others, it will have toys and will be always fun of life
The negative
*Sometimes you can't save a kid's life no matter what you do... if they have a terminal disease and it is sad.. but you have to learn how to deal with it and be able to help the family. * You will turn into the kid's nightmare ... Kids crying is not all the time the best thing for stress, you need to be really special to make them like you and not see you and get scared of you and even if you are really good... some kids will be scared of you. *I
