Kids and Problems

Pediatrics--(adjective) the branch of medicine dealing with children and their diseases--is an intriguing career. Ever since I’ve been in seventh grade I’ve know that I wanted to work with little kids and work in the medical field. Makenzie Vital inspired me to go in to pediatrics.

You get to solve problems on a daily basis, which makes your job even more interesting.

I love children and that they are always growing, and you get to see how they grow each time you see them. The skill set you need for it is exactly what I feel like I can do. The schooling may be difficult, but I’m willing to do it because this is what I want to do. There are many features, responsibilities, challenges, schooling, interest, skills, and planning involved in becoming a pediatric doctor. I know that I will have to get to know people who are already in this field, so I know how it works, and if put in a situation that is an emergency, how to respond. I hope that as I go into this field of study that I discover more details about pediatrics and the way it works. I’ll have my highs and my lows and I can’t wait to start this job.
