How could my salary, as an aspiring physician who is female and part of an under represented minority group, be affected in my future?
I have learned that in 2017 only about 34% of physicians were female. In addition to being female I am also a part of a minority group. I would like to know how these factors may play a role in determining my salary in my future career even though these facts have nothing to do with how I could perform. #female #physician #medicine #minority #healthcare #hospital-and-healthcare #women-in-stem #women

Do you have to go to a prestigious university to get into a "good" medical school?
I plan to study to become a #physician after I graduate from high school. I want to attend a "good" #medical-school, but I don't know if I'll be able to get into one if I attend a #public-school. I know that it is mostly up to me on whether I make it or not. But I have to believe that people who are undergraduates at #ivy-league schools are more likely to get into top medical schools. However, I don't want to be piled high with #student-debt before I even get to medical school, which will probably be even more #expensive . #premedical #medicine #premed

For a Physician's Assistant would having a biology degree allow you to have the best chance of getting into PA school and get you prepared for that career or would a degree in something more healthcare centered be more ideal?
I am a senior in high school and I will be going to college next year on a basketball scholarship. I have been guided towards the biology route because counselors have told me that would help me get into PA school. I am just nervous about deciding I don't want to go to graduate school and having a biology degree and not knowing what I can do with that. #biology #healthcare #graduate-school #physician #physicians-assistant

Where can I apply for my career and still be licensed correctly to perform it?
I am a senior trying to find details about my major of choice: Naturopathic Physician. Although, I have came to notice that the only way you can become a licensed and valid physician of this pathway is to approach a CNME accredited program but from where I live they are far out of state and will most likely be high in tuition. I would like to know is there any other option within state I can choose and still be able to be a licensed Naturopathic Physician? #physician #medical-education #doctor

Should I go for Physician Assistant or to be a Dental Hygienist
I am going for a bachelors degree but I am debating on which one to take. What do you think would be the best choice to a successful future? My heart is leaning more towards Dental Hygienist, however, in the state I currently live in, they do not have enough clinics for dental hygienist so the competition here is really tough. On the other hand, to be a Physician Assistant is more complicated in my perspective, a lot more difficult subjects to take but they have positions here for the job. #psychology #nursing #healthcare #physician #dentistry #japan #dental-hygienist #physicians-assistant #dental-hygiene

Whats the difference between a Physcian Assistant and a Nurse Practitioner?
I am so confused about the difference between a PA and a Nurse Practitioner! I know that you have to work a bit as a nurse and then go back to school for a nurse practitioner, and a PA goes to work as soon as they graduate, without having to go back to school. (I think!) Is there any other differences? Thanks! #nursing #physician
Medical biochemistry vs clinical pathology
Hi. Recently I was searching information about medical residencies and I found out that laboratory medicine has some kind of two "similar" specialties. So, my question is: what are the main differences between a physician with a specialty in medical biochemistry and another one with clinical pathology? The first one will be doing 5 years of training focusing only on medical biochemistry and the second one will get an overall training within all the different laboratory fields (biochem., microbio., haemathology, etc.). Which one is better in terms of "skills" for a "laboratory physician"? Does the clinical pathologist having the same knowledge in biochemistry than the medical biochemist physician? Thank you! #medicine #biochemistry #pathologist #healthcare #physician
