In fact, the best that we specialist docs can hope for is to become a world expert in some small area of medicine. I dislike that about my career choice – which is probably why I’m not doing full time clinical work. If you’re creative and love change, being a doctor isn’t the best choice. :)

Like Victoria, I’ve re-invented my career more than a few times. I’ve worked in neuro ICU, trauma ICU, open heart ICU/recovery, PACU, Pre-Op, OR, long-term care, risk management, and these days, as a Director of Nursing. I’ve loved every minute of my career, and am so grateful that I was able to shift gears when I started burning out. I’ve been asked to take a regional consultant position, but don’t want the multiple building headaches, so I’ll just hang here for the forseeable future, and continue to love my job!
