Allopathic Physician (M.D)
Duties and Responsibilities: Physicians examine patients; obtain medical histories; order, perform and interpret diagnostic tests; and prescribe and administer treatment for people suffering from injury or disease.  They counsel patients about illness, injuries, health conditions and preventive healthcare. They can also conduct medical research, teach and run medical centers.  People with medical education are in demand in many areas.  Physicians work in one or more specialties, including, among others: Anesthesiology, Family and general medicine, Surgery.

Salary; Average 163,510 $

Education: Most MD programs require 4 years of study, including emphasis on basic science, clinical work, and social science. The first two years of most programs are generally aimed at classroom learning of basic science as it relates to medicine.  Subsequent years of most programs then focus on clinical training.

Reflection: I would want to be a allopathic physician because they get paid good money and because they do things that interest me.
