Real-Time Transition Story - Dr. Alec Jacobson Part 1
By the time many physicians transition to a nonclinical career, they admit to having a long-time gut feeling that practicing medicine wasn’t for them - they just didn’t listen. While the reasons for not listening differ, coming to terms with these conflicting feelings is necessary to move forward. Today’s guest, 4th year pathology resident Dr. Alec Jacobson, is here to share the story of his difficult decision to leave clinical medicine as it plays out in real time. He’ll discuss why he chose medicine, the doubts that followed him through medical school and residency, and how he decided to make a change.
