WHY I SHOULD LIKE TO BE A MEDICAL DOCTOR

When I finish from this school. I should like to study medicine in the university. I have nursed this ambition right from childhood. I can remember when I was ill and was taken to a hospital when I was twelve years old. I was fascinated by the activities and hospitality of the doctor who took care of me on my sick bed. He so much endeared himself to me that, there and then, I decided to study medicine when I grow up.

Medicine, as a profession. commands great respect anywhere in the world. Medical doctors are respected for being hospitable and kind. They are kind to their patients whom they tend like seedlings which must not be allowed to die. A medical doctor cannot afford to be unkind or cruel to his patient as to allow his patient to suffer. He must be genial, good-natured, hospitable and must have a good disposition towards his patient.

Furthermore, medicine is a business of saving lives. This makes the profession to be regarded as the most noble profession in the world. If there were no doctors, many lives would be lost on daily basis. Doctors are professionals with adequate knowledge of all parts of human body and one cannot but be proud of belonging to such a profession. Doctors serve and contribute to humanity more than any other professional.

In addition to this, the medical profession is one of the most lucrative professions in the world. It gives practitioners the opportunity to work for the government in the government hospital and at the same time engage in private practic.e Therefore, it gives the practitioners the privilege to establish their own hospitals and clinics thereby making it possible for them to make a lot of money.

Moreover the medical profession gives one the opportunity to meet a lot of people. It makes one to be influential and popular because as a medical doctor, many people would want to be associated with you A patient whom you have i treated in the hospital would always remember how you help him and his family would for ever be grateful to you. All these make a medical practitioner popular and influential in the society. Many people would want to respect him and his opinion on any matter in the society.

Lastly, a medical practitioner with a stethoscope hanging on his neck is always a good sight to behold. This has also endeared me greatly to the profession and I have a dream of hanging the identifying instrument of the profession on my neck in the nearest future. Medical doctors are always very neat and they look resplendent in their white overall coat. This makes them respectable and the profession dignified.

Of course, I know what it takes to become a medical doctor and I am ready to do all it takes to belong to the medical profession.
