Doctor

I get a jolt of excitement in anticipation of the forty-five minutes of wonder I know are soon to delight my senses, forty-five minutes of adventure, fear, and the devilish world of Steven Moffat. Doctor Who is my all time favorite TV show, a show that follows the exploits of the time travelling Doctor and his intrepid companions across the universe. The cleverest thing about this show is, of course, the time travelling part, for it acts as an easy method for the writers to put the main…

I knew that I wanted to become a doctor by the time I entered high school because I was fascinated with the biomedical sciences and a passion for providing a beneficial service to others. There was never a moment of revelation of where I suddenly decided to become a doctor;rather my decision was one that came as a result ofcountless classroom experiences, taught values, and exposure to the medical profession. I was nine years old when a drunk driver crashed into my car as my family and I were…

become a doctor.” However, there are only a few moments where I have thought to myself “this is why I will become a doctor.” Since I was a little girl, I have always wanted to become a doctor. Although I cannot pinpoint the exact time when this idea was born, I can say that it has stuck with me for a majority of my life. While shadowing at hospitals and physical therapy clinics, I always felt that working in the healthcare environment would be a good fit for me. Seeing the doctors and…

Medical doctors must be licensed by the state in which they practice, and may also require some other certifications depending on their specialty. Contrary to popular belief, being a doctor is not simply curing disease. A medical doctor’s job is as much to prevent as it is to treat. Because of this,…

6th Period 12/16/14 Doctors When becoming a doctor you are to take an oath to basically place your patient’s interests before your own, protect and treat all patients equally, and to respect patient’s rights to make decisions.
