How to Become a Doctor?
By: Ejaz Alam | Topic: Career & Job
Someone asked that which two fields are inter related and financially rewarding to? The answer was food business and to be a doctor. This is because people surely like to eat and after eating to much they will certainly fall ill thus needing a doctor.
Well, that was the lighter part but the actual fact is that
medical career is the most important profession. Due to
contaminated water, impure food and fast moving lifestyle of the
society has put a number of people on health risk. New and never
heard before diseases are popping up every now and then.
For becoming a doctor, after completing your FSc (pre medical)
you need to seek admission in medical college. Few years back a
new test is introduced for admission in medical colleges. There
are lot of controversies on this test.
If you pass the admission test, you will be granted admission in
medical college. You have to study for about five years and
after passing the requisite test you get a MBBS degree (Bachelor
of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery).
After becoming a doctor you need to practice your knowledge
under the supervision of senior doctors for some time which is
know as house job. Successful house job qualifies a doctor to
practice independently.
It is a fact that a number of MBBS doctors are not satisfied
with their profession. Some of them do opt for CSS or other
jobs. The reason maybe that job market for simple MBBS doctors
is saturated. You will see a number of clinics on every nook and
corner and doctors are not earning much.
To be successful in this career you need to study further to
become a specialist of something, as eye, ENT, medical or heart
specialist. No doubt being a doctor is a highly respectful and
rewarding profession but for highly qualified, specialist
doctors. Simple MBBS may not benefit much.
If you have a large circle of friends and family and your clinic
is at a place where no other doctor is around. And your dealing
with your patients is also good, you can also flourish even
being a simple MBBS.
