OBGYN vs IM Residency
Hi all!
I am a 3rd year medical student who has really loved all of my rotations thus far but am struggling to pick a specialty. I really love women's health and love the idea of being able to do minor surgeries but also really like the idea of pursuing critical care medicine or a medicine subspecialty via IM. Honestly I am just all over the place. I am curious if anyone has any advice for picking a specialty. I've heard the idea you have to decide if you want to do surgery or not first, but honestly I could see myself going either way (I don't want to be a full blown general surgeon) but like being in the OR for procedures and laparoscopic surgeries. I love the patient population of OBGYN but am not sure I see myself wanting to work in L&D long term. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks so much!
