I am a resident, love cardiology. Think its fascinating and rewarding career.
I go to a top IM program and have decent research/CV, but I am questioning whether this is worth it or not.
I keep working thinking the end is year and it will be better as a fellow/attending. I do not want to work 60+ hours as an attending or be on call for most weekends. I am beginning to resent my choice in IM (versus radiology/derm) but I am not interested in any other subspeciality but cardiology. Other options I am- healthcare consulting, preventive cardiology fellowship, integrative medicine.
Should I reconsider? Or is there a viable option in the future. Not sure if anyone else has been in this position.
