"Medicine is like a sexy man-whore"

For those considering medicine, go into it eyes wide open:

Forget about the fuzzy ‘feel good’ I wanna help people bull****. Forget about the ‘privilege’ or ‘calling’ that some try to say is medicine. Realize it is just a job. It is just one aspect of your being. It, in itself, will not make you happy. Realize that patients are no substitute for family. If you can see yourself doing something else, and being happy doing it…you should strongly consider that option.
