Hello my name is Carlos and I'm a Junior in Highschool. All my life I wanted to become a doctor. Once I had a better understanding I decided to become a pediatric surgeon. This is why: When I was born (in Puerto Rico) I was born with many complications and I was not expected to survive. I have had a total of 20 surgeries and tons of hospital visits and admissions. During the whole time I wanted to give back. I've am healthy now, most of the problems were about urology and nephrology since I only have one kidney. I know many doctors say enjoy your time and dont stress it but I want to be dedicated. Right now I am bored there is rarely nothing to do especially with the Corona virus. I'll be taking online classes until it is safe. I want to start studying. I would like to know what to start studying and to keep building on to be ready and ahead of college and medical school. I feel like I am alive for this and I want this to happen. I want to become a great suergeon. I chose pediatrics becuase I was the patient. I was the kid always sick and getting cut open. I want to let my future patients know they are not alone and I understand. What should I read/study about first, what websites and any books to recommend or videos? Thankyou for helping.
P.S I also have a nominated award for future medicine, doctors and those who will serve humanity in the medical field.
