James’s Answer

I believe that all healthcare professions must learn how to gather information and process that information to solve problems for patients. It is absolutely what physicians do, but when I thought about your question I realized it applies to nursing, therapists, technologists, technicians... I think you should keep up your studies and explore the many professions that may click for you.

Magan’s Answer

There are many friendly career options in the medical field. You can become a specialist like a cardiologist, pathologist, or infectious disease doctor. If you like working with data and systems, you might enjoy being a clinical informatics specialist or a clinical researcher. Other great choices include becoming an acute care nurse practitioner or a clinical pharmacist.

Rita’s Answer

Several fields in medicine involve problem solving. I'm in family medicine and I believe most of primary care involves problem solving (Peds, Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Gynecology). Most patients come in for refills of their medication but several will come in with problems. Something hurts and I think of medicine as being a detective. I think the problem with medicine is it can be overwhelming, you cannot know it all, and it's a long time of education and training.

I advise anyone interested in medicine to work as a medical scribe. You see exactly what physicians do. You see how physicians solve problems, deal with difficult patients, etc. If you cannot do this job for 1 month, this is not the job for you and you have saved yourself a lot of time and money. The problem is with AI, this job will probably disappear. I even challenge you to work for free.

Kathleen’s Answer

Interesting question! There is quite a bit of problem solving evaluation of results, troubleshooting it's often called, in laboratory science. It's critical to know that results are accurate and make sense and that instrumentation is functioning properly. Quality Management and Risk Management are also areas that involve those skills.
