give me reasons why I would choose to become a doctor someday. Is it worth it?

Why is medicine a noble profession? How do they contribute to the society? Please give me answers!( I'm desperate!)
-thnx
Answer:
Not only is a doctor a job that is about saving people's lives but you make the world a better place. Now if you want to look at it from a financial stand point. Many jobs come and go like being in the oil business. One day maybe sometime soon we will run out of oil or stop using it. So then all of those people lose their jobs. But being a doctor, you never lose your job. People are always getting sick or hurt so they are always needing help from a medical authority. If you are a "people person" or you like making new friends and talking to people this would also be a great opportunity. You get to meet lots of new people and you get to be friends with your patients. I think that being in the medical field is a great job and has great points or things that you can do with it. Another point of the financial stand point is that doctors are paid generously. If anything above interests you I highly suggest you getting into the medical field. %26lt;3
because you have the joy of saving people's lives everyday and thats a reward withing itself.
People that go into medicine generally do so out of a love for the subject and desire to help people. If you don't have that chances are you will be an ineffective physician and should find another profession.
It doesn't sound like you're driven to become a Dr. on your own volition, so I'd say DON'T BECOME A DR! I only want the most talented, medicine loving people to be Drs. and you're not it. Sorry.
it is a noble profession if you are truly dedicated to your job and sincerely want to help your patients.
you can bilk the insurance co's out of a lot of money, then bill the patient for the rest. you can get all your drugs free, samples, you can own a house on the ocean and a 95' boat to go with it, you can get all the women you want, they come to you, lol.. i'll have to admit it 5% of them are real doctors and not just referral artist's.
I would say being a doctor is a good profession if you are a patient and compassionate person.
That is something you have to feel inside its a very very dedicated job and takes a special person to be awakened most nights and to be responsible for patients lives and to have to go to so many years of school. No one can tell you the reasons you have to have them or else your heading in the wrong job field and trust me its a hard career to get into so if your not dedicated you won't make it. My dad is a Radiologist and my brother is a dentist.
Mostly because you're a caring sort of person, but there's also public admiration, the variety, its well-paid and secure, its interesting, it involves life-long learning as medical techniques change, women would love to marry a doctor, etc.
hey, i'm a first year med student.before gettin admission i thought it was easy to become one.now i know that this a very difficult course,lots and lots to study.but when you go to the wards and see the respect that people give you eventhough you are just a student ,you really understand that it is worthwhile.her e you can save lives,thats more than enough a reason to get into this profession.if your interested comeon,join it.
I thought about this question.If you don't know or in doubt now. How could you be a great doctor later. If you don't know how important it is to be a doctor. I think you need to make of your mind. This is a decision you got to make. All you have to do is look all around you and see what it means to be in that field.hopes this helps.
Besides all the obvious aspects of becoming a physician, for me there are a couple of other "perks" to the profession. First off, your voice will be heard, if you would like to do research towards discovering new treatments, cures, procedures etc, becoming a physician will grant you the ability to do such. Also physicians can travel the world helping those in dire need. I know a surgeon that travels 3 times a year to different third world nations to do maxillofacial surgery on the poor. This surgery is greatly important because individuals can't eat with a deformed cleft pallet. Another friend of mine also works summers at a camp with children suffering from a terminal disease, the camp can't exist without the physicians on staff. On a more local perspective you can also donate time or work for a circuit of clinics that will allow you to care for the most underserved communities in your area.
If Hillary's health care or any other form of socialized medicine goes through, both medical care and the economy are kaput. In that case, it is not worth all the years of training and school for nothing. I am glad I am retired. The trial lawyers have run OB doctors out of the field.
You don't have to be special "type" to be a doctor. There are so many specialties in medicine, there is literally a place for anyone.
The previous answers are all based on stereotypes.
I am a doctor. Been one for 30 years. I prefer a practice where I see many patients and have little business responsibilities.
Some doctors are better at the business end. Some don't see patients at all. Caring and compassion have little to do with it.
Any profession requires hard work, dedication and integrity (except of course the legal profession- just kidding)
There is still a certain amount of societal respect for physicians, but even this has waned in recent years.
So don't go for the glory, the money or anything.
But medicine is the best combination of art and science I can think of.
There is a lot of self-satisfaction and a degree that is yours forever.
Good luck
