## Caption

I had an extremely hard time picking a specialty to commit my entire life to. I always have been interested in psychiatry and I majored in psych/neuro in college, but witnessing the magic of the OR and the mind blowing procedures that left me awe-inspired by this incredible field of medicine almost swayed me.  . These operations can seem almost superhuman, and I found myself day after day moved at what we’ve been able to achieve as mere humans on a surgical team.  . I found the emergency scenarios and fast-paced pharmacology thrilling, and I was inspired daily being surrounded by brilliant surgeons in every respective discipline working together to make a difference in the lives of their patients.  . Ultimately I decided against a surgical specialty or anesthesiology because at the end of the day I don’t have the patience to sit through long cases or dissect fascia for hours, and I simply prefer working with psych patients! I find working with patients who have psychotic or substance use disorders extremely rewarding and there is such a need for mental health providers who are compassionate & nonjudgmental.  . Anyone else have a hard time deciding or are currently struggling to choose a specialty? 🤍 . . . #medicalschool #anesthesiology #medicalresident #medstudent #premed #match2024 #thematch #doctorsofinstagram #CapCut
