A member asked:

Could i go into the medical field after a left temporal lobectomy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Why NOT??: There are many areas of medical care that need new personel, and you likely could make numerous contributions. Some education is more arduous than others, but a vocational counselor could point you in the direction appropriate to your skills and current intellect.
