<p>If you think it’s that awful, don’t go into medicine. I don’t think patients need miserable doctors inflicted upon them. There are lots of other ways to make a living.</p>
<p>If medicine really is the career for you, I think you’ll find a way to make it work. Residents work long hours, for sure, but I don’t know any who have lives as terrible as the example you gave. Really, it’s doable. :)</p>
