I have been practicing medicine for 30 years. Yes. the years of training were well worth it, and I continue to learn every day at work. Especially with the unemployment rate climbing from the Covid 19 pandemic, I realize how very lucky health professionals are to not only have great and fulfilling jobs but to be on the front lines taking care of our communities.

Yes, being a doctor is worth the years in training. I think that it is the best job in the world. I plan to practice medicine for as many years as I can regardless of my financial circumstances. The relationship that you develop with patients would be hard to match in any other field.

Yes! It is absolutely worth it. There are a lot of long hours studying in the library followed by long hours in the hospital, but it is a fulfilling career. There are so many opportunities after medical school... different specialties appeal to different individuals. Or you can follow a nonclinical route in research or even hospital administration.
