When i started school i have no idea what i wanted to do and now that im a couple years elder than you i think i finally know... its nothing as good as your heart surgery...

There be at one time a big call for heart surgeons, but that is ending. Cardiac problems... by pass and the like -- are now better managed near diet, medication, etc. We now know that doing a quad by-pass isn't the cure all to coronary artery disease..... they clog up again, and the patient is rear legs to square one. Artificial hearts have proven to be a long term damp squib, and transplants are rare, risky, and the patients are at very high risk for cancer, since suppressing the immune system allows cancers which we all have adjectives the time) to grow, and become lethal.
In the future, medicine will push for diet, and meds to control arterial disease, not surgery..
But heart surgeons to other things... replace valve, for example. and likely that will always be a viable procedure.
Studying medicine begin now, for you. Read anything and everything that has to do with prescription. Get a script to JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association) and learn all those big words. Look up diseases on WebMD.com and familiarize yourself. Get your parents to check out med books from your local hospital...(all hospitals hold a library...)
Anyone going into any branch of medicine can never start too early. I thought I wanted at one time to be a vet. By the time I be 16, I knew everything about equine lamenesses, biomechanics of lamenesses, etc., etc. (my dad was an md. He and I other talked about medicine, surgery, his patients, etc. By the time I be 18, he told me I knew more than half the docs in town, since at the dinner table he would hand over me a list of symptoms and we'd discuss things... and he's ask me for a set of possible diagnoses.)
Don't decide what branch of medicine you want to do presently.... just decide if helping people win well is something you might like. It is not a profitable career any longer, and will decrease so in the future...at least here within the US. Source(s): dad and md, husband one as well. Both Family Practice.
I was pre-vet, but decided have to destroy any animal was something I could never ever do. Went into counseling/teaching instead, and for me, a great choice.
First, if you haven't already, you want to do a lot of commission shadowing. Second, you have to get through 4 years of highschool, and then 3-4 years of pre-medicine. Then you hold 4 years of medical school, and then you will specialize into surgery and cardiology. That is in the USA, I don't know around outside of USA. But I would ask a counselor once you get to highschool, they would be able to tell you who you entail to get ahold of and what to do to prepare yourself. Good luck to you, surgery in and of itself is tough. Source(s): Finishing pre-med.
