Would it be wise, and what would be the best route to take if I am interested in pursuing a career in both aviation and medicine (possibly surgery), not to work in the USA alone, but to expand overseas and use as a mission endeavor?

I don't know if it is possible to blend the two, as they are both quite opposite on the career ladder. If it is, what do you see as being the pros and cons of trying to accomplish both, or just one or the other? Do you think it would be feasible to meld the two? I don't want to be another mediocre leaf on the tree. I want to make a difference in the world. Experience relating to each field and what challenges y'all face in day-to-day life would also be appreciated.

To All Surgeons: How did you become one, and what is your daily life like?

Hiya! I want to become a general Surgeon; therefore, I want to know what each type of surgeon experiences, both similarities and differences. I also want to know how you became a surgeon. What path did you take (starting from high school)? I've heard some became surgeons through the Navy. Would that be an option I should consider? Thank you!

How do you decide what field of surgery is right for you as a surgical tech?

I am currently enrolled in a surgical technology program and I'm having a hard time deciding what specialty would be best for me. I would like to eventually advance my career and continue on to medical school, however I'm having a hard time making a decision on where I would be better suited. I would like to work with a specific specialty as a surgical tech so that I will have a better idea of my path during and after medical school.
