What made you choose the route of becoming a physician instead of pursuing any other medical career and when was your "Aha!" moment.?

I am an an 18 year old high school senior and I've wanted to be a physician/dermatologist since I was about 13. How open should I be to exploring other areas of medicine as I progress through my undergraduate major and then med school. #Spring25
