Hi! I'm starting peds residency this year - so still plenty of time for explorations and decisions, but interested in your input on how well a subspecialty could potentially fulfill the preferences that I have:
- I'm interested in a more outpatient-based/or consultant-type/lower-intensity field (like, I don't think I'll thrive well in ED, NICU, PICU). I'm also not so interested in a research-career, but am also not interested in a private-practice model (I'm both terrible at business-related things and a believer in single-payer, don't want insurance to be an issue).
- for example, my understanding is that peds endo or rheum would be limited to academic medical centers, that there'd be an expectation for research, and maybe not a ton of flexibility in schedule, etc? i'm also curious about are B&D, AI...
thanks for listening and interested in hearing any feedback
