>>14239041>day-to-dayI'd have to go with IM or hospitalist in countries which have them. You have a sort of holistic approach, most your patients are a pretty complicated mix of chronic and acute shit.
few contenders
>neuro while pretty high iq as a career choice, the day to day isn't actually that difficult. the differential diagnosis is very easy once you get it down, and the fairly limited number of diagnoses and treatment options makes it purrty easy, especially in an acute enviroment. you throw patients in the ct/mri, radiologist tells you what is wrong and you ring up the neurosurgeon or start the thrombolysis. in the wards it's mostly managing fairly stable patients and rehabilition. outpatient is bit more difficult, but most of the time it's because you have to save money and not send everyone to the mri. the number of drugs and treatable conditions in general is fairly small. and in the end you get to focus on your own shit and consult others if the patient has medical issues
>anesthesiologyif you mean critical care as a separate spec, the you might have a point. anybody who can intubate, place lines and empty syringes can run an OR without any issues 99% time. also kek at
>>14239086, neonatal and kids in general got nuthin over the adult icu
>FMsort of the same thing as IM, but in the day-to-day most of your patients don't have anything serious, and what you do or don't doesn't really matter.
>EMyou can do em on a very high level, but what it REQUIRES (ie EMT monke) is not much, just exclude all the things that can kill the patient in 48 hours
