Read what two British medical students say about their choice of medical career:
Stuart, 3rd year medical student, Manchester
It was always a childhood dream to become a doctor. I chose to study medicine because it seemed like a vocation that suited my personality. I think it's a great privilege to be able to help people when they're most vulnerable.
Alongside this, I've always had a genuine interest in health and the causes of ill health, so I knew I'd find medicine intellectually rewarding. I'm a people person, so I knew that I would enjoy working as part of a team with lots of other professionals to treat patients. I'm really happy to be studying medicine and I'm excited to eventually practice as a doctor, but medicine isn't for everyone. Caring for the infirm is rarely glamorous and patients aren't always obliging and grateful - the decision to become a doctor has to be your own. Good luck with your future career!
Catherine, 4th year medical student, Aberdeen
My earliest impression of medicine occurred when my mother repeatedly required the assistance of physicians in dealing with her chronic migraine headaches. Her doctors were always there for her, day or night. The respect that my parents had to doctors, and the doctors' ability to ease suffering, sparked a desire to one day become a physician myself. I also had the chance to gain some firsthand experience in the medical profession when I volunteered for over a year in the emergency room of a regional hospital. From my volunteer experience, I learned the importance of organization and effective communication skills. I think doctors should be able to serve people of all different races, ages, backgrounds, and cultures. I strongly believe that the ultimate goal of any physician is to improve healthcare on a local, national and inter-national level. I intend to use my skills and experience to become a good doctor.
