Hi all,
I currently matched into a prelim program and an anesthesia spot. I, however, am having alot of doubts about anesthesia. For some reason (late), I'm worried about all these invasive procedures that will be thrown left and right. I have been interested in Nuclear Medicine since 3rd year and was thinking about switching.
Do you think I stand a chance at switching even if I matched to a prelim and a PGY2 year? I called some NM programs and they are very helpful and some are rolling admissions. Any help with this process would be great. Perhaps this is just pre-residency jitters but I really can't see myself putting patients to sleep anymore and performing highly invasive procedures.
I know the job market might be low, but i'll try to have some hope with something I have preference in as a lifelong career rather than do something I won't be happy with for the rest of my life.
Please, any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
