Over the past few weeks, we have had some pretty interesting
speakers come talk to us. A trend that I have seen with these last few is that
they have talked about their lives outside of the medical field. This is nice
to hear because it gives me hope that down the road when I want to have a
family and continue pursuing my dreams in the medical field it is indeed
doable. One of the key points that one of the doctors mentioned that really
stuck with me is that you will need to ask for help and it is okay. I know that
this may be a trouble point for myself because I am the type of person who
wants to do everything herself to make sure its perfect.
One speaker was an ER physician at the hospital who is
actually the doctor in charge of the Crash studies we have been working on. He
talked a little bit about his past research project on cardiac arrests and his
work with the Huron Valley Ambulances. He also gave a very interesting
presentation on his unique hobby - skydiving. It is possible to have fun even with all the
work you have to do!
The other speaker that was really interesting was a radiologist
from a private practice. The way she explained her practice really changed my
perspective on what a radiologist actually does. They can specialize in a lot
of different areas which I had no idea about.
It is nice to hear about people working in lots of different
fields because it gives me a better idea of what I may be interested in or not
when I get older.
