A recent study has found that young students across the country have two main interests in terms of what career they wish to embark upon once they finish education, the first is engineering and the second is to become a doctor. Taking on the latter, we spoke to one of the finest doctors to find out more, John Kang WebMD contributor who specializes in oncology and general surgery is a master of his craft, a man who upholds ethical practice and who’s abilities seemingly know no bounds. John Kang liquidmetal surgeries have set him apart from the rest in his field, so what better man than him to tell us why so many young men and women want to become doctors. 

Humanity

John Kang MC first tells us that the main reason why these young students want to become doctors is for the same reason as to why people have always wanted to become doctors, saving and helping lives. The ability of doctors these days is simply astonishing and thanks to modern technology and medical practices, we have the ability to diagnose and cure better than ever before. At the very root of every good doctor’s personality, is the desire to do good. 

Respect

Another aspect of the job which John tells me is becoming highly sought after is the respect which a job of this gravity can bring a person. Respect can be hard to come by in many industries, but anyone like doctor John Kang MC, will instantly gain the respect of those in the community. 

Salary

Whilst it will never be the chief reason that someone would like to become a doctor,  the fact that doctors are some of the highest paid people in the country is most certainly a draw. Interestingly in those countries where doctors are not paid high wages as they are here in the US, there is far less desire to become a doctor, the suspicion is that there are just as many people who care for others, but the financial incentive is simply not there. 

Job Satisfaction

John goes on to tell me about how much of a satisfying job being a doctor can be, professionally, personally and, as previously mentioned, financially. There are few jobs in the world where you can count on job satisfaction, with many feeling that the job they have been working towards, soon becomes a disappointment. John tells me that in many of the hospitals that he has worked for, that the job satisfaction percentage amongst doctors is incredibly high, in spit of the long, tough hours which they need to work. If you are someone that loves the thought of becoming a doctor one day, it is very likely that you will feel utterly satisfied when you eventually gain the position, a huge draw for anyone.
