  • One of the most daunting decisions any physician makes is deciding which specialty to go into. Unlike some other medical professions, being a physician entails a lot more time and training commitment to specialties making it a fairly cumbersome task to switch. There is also an element of the sunk cost fallacy where many physicians believe they cannot switch due to the amount of time already dedicated and continue their careers in a specialty they ultimately do not enjoy. This conversation helps to encourage and spark conversations about career mobility within medicine for physicians.

    As someone going into physical therapy school but also wanting to go to medical school, this is a really inspiring video. I feel like education is never a waste and incorporating my future physical therapy knowledge into whatever specialty I choose to do is something that I really think is possible!

    As in MS2 who finds interest in a lot of specialties and worries that I will choose the wrong specialty, this interview provides great perspective & is so refreshing. Thank you so much!

    Dr. Reynolds was the first resident I worked with on MS3 clinical rotations and I could not have been any luckier. He’s not only a fantastic physician and teacher, but also a joy to spend time with.

    Such a great video! There are so many unique paths that come from an MD, but they're not often talked about so can come with a lot of shame and loneliness. He has such a healthy outlook on it and I think this will help many students, residents, and physicians thinking of taking a slightly different route than the "normal," straightforward path. Thanks so much to both of you for making and sharing this!

    I truly think that it would be more useful for a medical student to SIT with an intern, PGY1, PGY2, etc. for a full day rather than do the tasks and such that we are responsible for doing. I think it would give us a better idea of what to expect once we get to the point of NEEDING to decide what we want to specialize in.

    I’m a med student in my core clinical year and I am having this conversation with myself all the time. I like MedPeds a ton and have had amazing mentors in MedPeds but community psych with child/adolescent psych is really the thing I am finding most gets my motor running. Like him my ideal would be something that incorporates some primary care too. I am so afraid of that planting my flag since there is still so much to explore but equally I want to dive deeper into psych to be competitive as an applicant and to see if it is the right fit for me.

      MashaAllah happy to see you here bro! Lol loved coming across your channel when I was going down the rabbit hole of switching specialities and how there's such a lack of information out there about this unfortunately

    Excellent video.
    I completed my residency in Oncology in Canada, then did oncology research....now considering switching to primary care, I believe prevention is WAY much important than treatment. I gave up in oncology treatment to be effective, there is no cure :( and I got a burn-out from oncology.
    it is not a time waste, and not too late at all.

    I find this topic so interesting! thanks Dr. Andy! 🫡 The specialty switches I have seen or heard of seem to usually be from chaos (hustle and bustle, time crunches, many hands in the pot perhaps causing interference/a struggle with physician autonomy - could be midlevels, insurance companies, other specialties/disciplines) and lots of people interaction that is not one on one to less chaos and less people (perhaps more one on one), and sometimes even to not even patient-facing. There's something to be said about the burnout rates between the two "types" of specialties.
