“The purpose
of life is not
to be happy.
It is to be
useful, to be
honorable, to
be
compassionat
e, to have it
make some
difference
that you have
lived
and lived
well.” —Ralph

Emerson
Why did I pursue this career?
The up side of being a general
surgeon, I think, is the fact
that you heal people. Another
upside is that, hopefully, I won’t
have money problems.
The downside of being a general
surgeon is that you don’t get to
have a lot of free time because you
never know when you need to
do surgery. Also, student loans
because they are a big responsibility
after collage.
