Neurologist
Duties and responsibilities: neurologists may work in
hospitals, clinics, or universities treating patients, conducting research or
teaching students. They are experts at the diagnosis and treatment of neurological
disorders, including stroke, dementia and neuromuscular diseases. As clinicians,
neurologists examine patients may order and interpret diagnostic tests in order
to determine the best courses of treatment. As researchers, they may
participate in clinical studies and other research.
Salary: $140.060
Education requirements: Neurologists must begin their careers
by going to college and then attending medical school. As undergraduate,
aspiring doctors who major in a science, such as biology, chemistry or physics
will be better prepared for a medical school curriculum. Although most colleges
do not have a pre-med major because medical schools do not require any specific
major some schools do offer a pre-med concentration that may include the
biology, chemistry, physicians and math courses required by medical schools.
I wouldn’t like to be this because it’s something I’m not
interested in working.
