Dozens of medical students, residents, and even some attending reach out to me every year asking for guidance on whether or not they should quit medicine. I canโt tell you whether you should or shouldnโt, but in this video, Iโll cover a framework to empower yourself to make the best decision for you.
Quitting clinical medicine has been a thing for as long as clinical medicine has been a thing, but it doesnโt get much visibility, and there are very few resources for students who are considering quitting.
Here are the 5 steps to help you decide whether or not quitting medicine is right for you.
