Is it better to get an MD or a Ph.D in a medical field after undergrad?

<p>I’m just stating that one person (PhD) told me that he thinks it’s harder for him to get a grant than if he was an MD. And I’m pretty sure my 40-year-old PI (MD) is still paying off med school debt.</p>

<p>Feel free to ignore me, I haven’t started grad school yet so I have no personal experience with this matter.</p>
