I'm glad you had such a good experience in medical school, and enjoyed Ob/Gyn. Personally, I wish that all medical students had a good time in Ob/Gyn, I have done Ob/Gyn clinical work at a hospital that was not where I did the core and had a FANTASTIC time, it was great interacting with the residents and attendings. So, if someone really wanted to do Ob/Gyn as a career, but hated their Ob/Gyn clerkship, this can largely be based on *where* the clerkship is done. My advice if Ob/Gyn was abusive for you, but still want it, then do a SubI or elective at another hospital. Some Ob/Gyn departments are fabulous, whereas other are frank in that they will treat you very poorly. My Ob/Gyn attending flatly stated that he was the "worst" we will ever had, and he took actions to make that happen, i.e. abuse, intimidation. While it is wrong to generalize and say that *all* ob/gyn clerkships are abusive, it is also wrong to generalize and say that *all* ob/gyn clerkships are fab. From my personal experience of seeing medical students at Ob/Gyn clerkships in different hospitals (key here) would be that 50% of Ob/Gyn clerkships a student will have a malignant experience. From this board, I would guess that it might be even higher. Even within a clerkship some students are atttacked constantly despite hardwork, and others somehow escape being a target. Some schools are great at medical student well-being, and others are not. I really loved the pathophysiology behind pregnancy, and helping to take care of patients as you can be really helpful in ob/gyn more than other clerkships, but still harassed to the point of tears on several occassions. Be grateful that you had a good experience, not everyone is so blessed, I asked myself several times what I did to deserve this hell in ob/gyn.
