Personal Statement: My Interest In Healthcare

Decent Essays
Im interested in healthcare because since I was young I always wanted to be a doctor. When they would ask me what i wanted to be when i grew up i would always say something healthcare related. except that one time i wanted to be a professional chef because i watched too many cooking shows. Then i found out that i could not cook at all.

I want to help people and i know i can do that by choosing a healthcare career. I use to do community service and i remember helping people and how good it felt. I want to experience that everyday. i want a career where i can go to work and not hate my job. Knowing that i helped someone will make it worth it.

My favorite subject has always been science. i have always been good at it because it intrigued me

    Growing up I never had a clear idea of what I wanted to do as a profession. No inclination of something that amazed me or pushed me toward it. I eventually chose what I thought would be a good stable career simply because it would be a financially good choice but it never seemed like something I could stick with or love.
