Hi, young male doctor here. Pureblood and ethnic european naturally. I don't want to go to much into detail about me, but I have worked in surgery and briefly in family medicine. Right now I am in a different field. Ever since I started studying medicine, I wanted to work in the field I currently am working in. Lately I have been so fed up I don't want to show up for work. What has gotten to me is the whole covid hoax and my colleagues who buy in to it all. The discussions on this variant or the next one. Whether we will be getting the third jab. How some of the doctors are standing up for the third world and insist we jab them instead – actually I agree with this, but for different reasons. How everyone is lining up for untested experimental injections for a made up disease that by their own government's statistics has a 0,006% chance of killing them. Madness. This on top of my previous grievances with modern medicine has got me regretting studying medicine in the first place.

Naturally I don't feel like I belong and I don't know what to do. I have considered some of the smaller specialties like ENT or opthalmology, but I fear it will be the same with those. I have considered going back to family medicine, but I didn't enjoy it and I can't see myself doing it for the rest of my life.

I have read a lot of good posts and comments from you on all sorts of jobs. Do any of you have any suggestions on what to do? I am a pretty good doctor, I used to get good reviews from my colleagues, not so much lately as i think they can't tell I am fed up. And I am not sure I want to give up on all those years of studying just yet. Suggestions? Feel free to ask any questions if you want, medical or otherwise.

This. I know he said he doesn't like family medicine, but right now is the time we need general family medicine docs to help with all the normal stuff without pushing the shot and who will still see people without having the shot.

This is what I was goign to say to an extent.

OP, keep functioning in the system as long as you can but with the strategy of extracting and storing as much wealth as you can. If you not already, get trained up on trauma and field medicine. AND THEN START INSTRUCTING.

People think its going to be all about armed conflict. No, the door kickers ain't shit without supply and auxilary.

Surgery is not for everyone, but I could man first aid stations. Keep people alive long enough for surgeons to treat them.

Is it easy to cross train into other fields of medicine that would not require the same mental load but also alleviate the stress of poorfagging in the medical industry?

I would think that radiology would be a less stressful environment though a bit mind numbing due to monotonous repetition at times

I wouldn't really know, I haven't cross trained much at all. Radiology does seem very repetitive and at my local hospital I know they are in desperate need of doctors, which means they are working far more night shifts than they probably should.
