What are the differences between medical microbiologists, infectious disease specialists, immunologists, and rheumatologists?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The medical team: The great thing about Medicine, is there are many interesting areas to focus on. Just like a team sport with a quarter back, running backs, receivers etc - within Medicine there are interesting roles that you can explore if you find particular interest in a certain area. I know docs who only work on HIV for example. I'm an ID doc and I think I have the best job in the world! Follow your interests.
