Speaking at a careers night for junior doctors at the local regional hospital, trying to get them to become GP/Rural/RG. Some themes over the speeches seem to be consistent. Almost all of the talking/thinking/physician like specialities seem to be in workforce shortage and offering lots of variety and life balance and opportunities for special interests. At least in regional areas this seems more true. Less shortage with the ‘doing’/procedural (and of course they will point out they are thinking) specialties. Do we think this is an effect of the kind of medical students we are choosing? Is it that the roles appear more enticing to doctors because of variety/challenge/hand eye skills? Are procedural roles desirable as they may be seen as less emotionally heavy?Or perhaps it is because our funding system has long favoured procedures over talking and the market is just responding to years and years of price signalling?Should we be looking at the way we fund the roles in medicine as the key part of overall reform? Feels like we are tinkering at the edges with all the blame being applied to ‘scope’ issues. (Photo of one of the communities, Karumba, that I visit where we will never get a procedural specialist to join us).

Unlocking the boundless potential of a medical degreeBeing a doctor is inherently stressful. The demands of patient care, combined with the administrative, bureaucratic, and other challenges that come with the profession, can make our careers incredibly taxing. However, I want to encourage everyone to recognize the vast potential and diverse opportunities that your medical degree and training offer.Do not feel confined to a traditional path without exploring the full breadth of possibilities that align with your interests and aspirations. Your medical degree equips you with a unique skill set that can be applied in numerous ways beyond conventional clinical practice. There are countless avenues where you can make a significant impact, whether directly through patient care or indirectly by contributing to the broader medical field.I urge you to step beyond the traditional boundaries of a medical career and seek out ways to use your qualifications to pursue what truly excites you. Whether it's engaging in medical research, healthcare administration, policy making, medical education, or even branching out into fields like medical technology or global health, your expertise can be invaluable.Remember, the path to a fulfilling career in medicine is not one-size-fits-all. It is shaped by your passions, goals, and the unique contributions you can make to the world. Embrace the possibilities, and allow your medical degree to serve as a foundation for a diverse and impactful career that resonates with your personal and professional aspirations.Sylvie Stacy, MD, MPH is a preventive medicine physician.Link in bio or visit https://lnkd.in/eEgKJj_6#Healthcare #MedicalCareer #DoctorLife #MedicalEducation #CareerOpportunities #BeyondMedicine #MedicalJourney #FutureDoctors #MedicalInnovation #HealthcareProfessionals
