The career I have chosen is a surgeon. A surgeon operates to fix injuries, correct deformities, prevent diseases, and help out the patients in any other way they can. Surgeons also have to be able to see if surgery is necessary, they have to be able to explain to the patient the risks of the operation, and choose which operation to do. I chose this career because I have always had a passion towards helping others, and always admired the work of doctors and surgeons.
