Surgeon

Duties and Responsibilities: A surgeon is a specialist in surgery.  Surgery is a broad category of invasive medical treatment that involves the cutting of a body, either that of a human or another animal.

Salary:This wage is equal to or greater than $187,200 per year or $90.00 per hour.

Education:Complete at least 4 years of undergraduate school, 4 years of medical school, and, depending on their specialty, 3 to 7 years in internship and residency programs.

Demand for this particular career:Employment of physicians and surgeons is projected to grow 14 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not? I don’t think i could ever become a surgeon even though i do admire them. I don’t have steady hands, i hate seeing blood and i can’t have the thought of cutting someone open in my mind haunt me at night.
