Is it still worth it to be a Doctor in the Philippines as of 2025?
This comment helped me a lot! 27 right now, and less anxious about what 2026 will bring me!
Any notes on what to do next after graduation? Feeling a little lost about which direction I want to go..
I used to dream of residency abroad. it felt like the only way to “make it.” but after my rural rotation, I met a doctor who’s been serving the same barangay for 20 years. and the way the patients lit up when he walked in? that stayed with me.
