Questions from Doctors Considering a Career Change
by Michael J. McLaughlin, MD
For Every Physician Considering a Career Change
“Physicians are used to linear career paths, formalized educational programs, and textbooks. Our careers typically progress through a predictable series of decision points, each complete with a road map for the next several years and a bibliography of recommended reading. Stepping out of a clinical career path can open up an endless set of options with no road map – a seemingly daunting proposition for the physician mindset.”
The candid combination of personal experience and advice in this book helps the reader navigate the five phases of career change: introspection, exploration, preparation, acquisition, and transition.
