- A Resource About Choosing a Career in Medicine
-
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- When young people write and ask how to prepare for a career in medicine,
- I find myself wishing that I could sit down with each one personally to
- discuss this important career decision. Despite many of the changes that are
- current in medicine today, as with so much else in our lives, I don't know of
- any other career that could have brought me the personal satisfaction and
- inner rewards that my life in medicine has. And so I have no reservations in
- recommending a similar career to others.
- And now I have a new resource for all of the parents, grandparents and
- students themselves, to help provide the answer to their questions, and
- additionally indicate other publications that help in making the decision and
- preparing for medical education. It is called "Considering a Career in Family
- Medicine" and it is yours, free for the asking. Simply write to:
- "Considering a Career in Family Medicine", Publications Order Department,
- American Academy of Family Medicine, 8880 Ward Parkway, Kansas City, MO 64114.
- It provides the answers to many of the questions that you have addressed to
- me, and I am pleased that now you may obtain the answers.
