Hi everybody,
I know that these are disparate specialities, but I am considering pathology and psychiatry. I think I would enjoy the work environment of pathology: a calm environment with intellectually stimulating work. However, I know that pathology does not have as much flexibility as psychiatry, especially concerning private work. Additionally, it seems that psychiatry can have higher pay than pathology these days. I also find the patient interactions in psychiatry interesting. If you were in my shoes, which specialty would you pick?
