With MMC about to start taking effect, one of my concerns is how

future paediatric surgeons will enter our profession given the much

reduced experience as HO/SHO level.  This may be an unfounded fear,

but, for exapmple, for ages I wanted to be a brain surgeon until I

did paed surg as part of a rotation and loved it.

Year of training?

When did you form a firm intention to enter paediatric surgery?

SPR jobs    

        

When was your first experience of paed sugery?

 sho jobs (bst rotation)

       

and was this when you decided on paed surgery as a career?

        NO

Did you seriously intend to enter any other branch of

medicine/surgery before changing to paed surgery?

        If so, what?

        GENERAL ADULT SURGERY

        When did you change your mind?

        What changed it?

        PAED SURG IS SO INTERESTING AND I LOVE WORKING WITH KIDS

Any other comments about choice of paed surgey as a career or

influences on your choice?

Thanks
