What’s the best piece of career advice you ever got?: The best advice I have received is that when you pick a career, you’re not just choosing what you’re going to do as a resident; you’re choosing what you do for the next 30-40 years! Make sure that whatever you choose is something you can see yourself doing for the rest of your career.
