Are there any medical professionals that I can interview quickly?

I have to interview any kind of doctor/ healthcare worker for an English paper in my class, so I’d greatly appreciate a few answers to include in my assignment: 1) please tell me about your educational and professional background, and why you wanted to go into the medical field. 2) what are some obstacles that you encountered when going through medical school? How did you get past them? 3) what advice would you offer others who are trying to get into your profession? 4) How are you able to maintain a work-life balance when having such a demanding job?

How do I get started as a nurse with different experiences?

I used to want to be a pharmacist. I graduated a four year university and my grades weren't that good so I need to go to community college to retake some classes. I finally got a job as a pharmacy clerk after 3 years of unemployment after graduation, and I'm also a pharmacy volunteer at a hospital. After working at a pharmacy for a few months, I learned that pharmacy isn't a good field to enter right now and that I should become a nurse instead. I appreciate them looking out for me but I'm not sure where to start. I am again thankful for finally getting pharmacy experience after 3 years of unemployment after graduation. But, realizing that what I wanted for awhile isn't all that it's made to be, I'm confused on what to do, how to get started in this new field or how to transfer what I know or spent what I thought I wanted, to something else. Thank you for reading this

What is your favorite part about being a pediatric doctor, and what are the downfalls?

I am very interested in having a future career path in the pediatric unit. To be more exact I either want to be a pediatric nurse, or general surgeon. I am 15 years old and in 9th grade, and my whole life this career path has always stuck out to me. This year I am in honors science, and next year will be taking honors biology and honors chemistry. As a result, I can get into my schools' nursing program as well.
