choosing a medical specialty

One day, I found the data pdf entitled "The Ultimate Guide to Choose Medical Specialty" in the flash of a friend, book tells of how a general practitioner specialists study choices. Well, for me this is very appropriate. During this time, the desire is to become a surgeon. choosing a medical specialty, Because, maybe I had too much input information is less balanced times huh? I've read books written by Atu Gawande Complications, and serial I'd seen was Team Medical Dragon, in which the main characters is a surgeon. So, virtually, it's still childish dream, because it has not backed up the data accurate and complete information about their interests and abilities. Just one perspective only.
Well, the book made me understand the importance of preparing for the determination of choice of medical specialization. Why is it important? Since the exact choice of specialization will make the doctor more happy in his profession, and become better doctors for their patients.
10 factors to consider in determining the choice of specialization:

1.     Is this a generalist (studying broad, ex. Internist, surgery, pediatrician, family practice), specialists (who studied in, ex. Obgyn, ophthalmology, otolaryngology) or supportive (helpful generalists and specialists, ex. Anaesthesiology, pathology, radiology)
2.     Is love a basic science foundation of the major specialties, and interested in the changes in the information
3.     Are tend to like to interact with patient loads and tight (internal medicine, family practice) or a lot, but a while ago (surgery, emergency medicine). Who are willing to get dirty (surgery, OBGYN) or a cleaner (psychiatry, ophthalmology). That area is focused (urology, orthopedics), the intensity met relatively few patients (radiology, pathology), etc..
4.     Is it able to withstand the type of patients that will be encountered, ex. Emergency physicians often encounter patients who are angry and demanding but not emergency care. Pediatricians face a demanding parent. Progress oncologist faces deadly disease patients improved very little compared to a very aggressive effort.
5.     Choose a specialization that makes you happy there. No matter what the family, colleagues and others about that option. Remember, that every physician specialties have the same important role in supporting the great work to build health. And the idea that certain specialties have the prestige and honor others more than merely personal opinions only.
6.     Lifestyle due consideration of the risk profession to be taken. The medical world is a world that demands a lot. Midnight phone that requires birth Caesar or appendix operation, reduced autonomy in care management, or increased threat reporting and prosecution of malpractice. Each specialization has unique risks and different, and it depends how you want to live by the candidate specialists.
7.     The length of time of residency. Be aware that some specialties require a longer training time than others. The more specific the training you take, the more time you need. You are very likely to be a student forever! N But this fact does not mean you have to choose the level of specialization of short duration only to immediately enjoy the results. You certainly do not want the wrong direction, right?
8.     Competition to enter certain specialties education. Because the truth is to enter a specialized education, prospective students have to face competition from other colleagues. You also should be aware of how much your chances in entering the specialization you want. Unfortunately, even if your heart has been determined to be a surgeon or medicine, you may not be able to achieve it. And a doctor should not just stare, "I am only one match on the specialization child," or even, "I would never go into radiology because my place is not there."
9.     Future income and consumption potential. There is still no standard salary data for certain specialists in Indonesia. And taxes should also be a consideration.
10.     Employment opportunities. So much information about the specialties of the 'wet' and 'dry', it is not a major consideration for someone to go into a specialty. Each specialization does have its heyday respectively. But if you just follow the latest trend to be specialization, you will only torture yourself in the job you do not love. And actually, would however a doctor, what you've heard there are doctors who are starving because short on money?

With these considerations, I hope our colleagues who want to continue his education specialist program can be a bit helped.
