Would I be able to only stay in the pediatrics field in occupational therapy because I want to work with children? Does that include encouraging them to get physically fit and healthy again?
I originally wanted to be a pediatrician because I love working with kids and I believe that that's what I want to do with my life. I love helping people especially children. I started college as a biology major but after taking courses in Biology, I realized that Biology isn't for me. Many advisors and student I've spoke to me told me that I don't have to be a bio major to be a pediatrician. So, I started considering other things I was really interested in. After taking the Myer Briggs test, I discovered what I already knew, that I love helping, encouraging, and taking care of people and children. So, I got a lot of occupations in the medical field and the education field. The two occupations I'm leaning towards to now are Speech Pathology and Occupational Therapy. i just have to find out more about them first. #doctor #pediatrics #occupational-therapy #occupational-health
