Doctor of Medicine, a common medical school degree for physicians. MDs at One Medical typically specialize in family medicine, internal medicine, geriatrics or pediatrics.
It’s rewarding to help people who are sick have an urgent health concern to feel better. Often I’m able to treat the acute need and help people get better right away. Other times I simply initiate a referral or start the first step in a multi-step evaluation. Either is rewarding. Beyond just instant gratification, it’s providing reassurance or offering another way to or point of view that may help put someone’s mind at ease.
