Why I DIDN'T... Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery is an amazing specialty, I was seriously considering becoming a neurosurgeon until my surgery rotation in medical school, when I realized it wasn't for me. Choosing a specialty is one of the most important decisions you'll make in medical school and in your path to becoming a doctor. Neurosurgery is a fantastic specialty, but it's not for everyone.

This is my experience with neurosurgery, why it was high on my list of potential specialties, and tips for you if you're considering specializing in neurosurgery in the future.

Some of the things I loved about neurosurgery include the subject matter, more specifically the central and peripheral nervous systems. I loved the personalities and the emphasis on medical management as well – being well rounded in both surgical and medical techniques.

However, there are some things I didn't like. The outcomes are usually poor compared to other specialties, brain surgery is less precise than I expected, and the work life balance is one of the worst.
