Default Re: Rant: Doctors don\'t change the world.

A doctors sacrifices more than any other common professional. My dad who is a Doctor worked 80+ hour weeks when he was in residency. He was in ER surgery at the time and he practically lived in the hospital. He only earned like 40-50k for the 4 years he was in residency and I'm not even talking about the 8 years of school. He switched from surgery to family practice because he did not want to deal with the stress and wanted to see his kids more than once a week although surgery pays more than twice as much. In my opinion doctors are underpaid and overworked. Imagine a world without lawyers I think it would be nice actually now imagine a world without doctors, dentists or medicine half of you would have died at childbirth along with your mom.
