Reflection
Medicine field. Being that I am an athlete, and being that I am intrigued by doctors, this field interested
me. Coincidentally, a Sports Medicine Physician resulted from my career interests tests. Specialties such
as Anesthesiologist and Radiologist also came up, but I concluded on Sports Medicine Physician to
While researching this job, I learned that the top schools for medicine in
California are University of California Davis, Stanford, University of California Irvine, and University
attending college there has never been a dream of mine. Up until this project, my goal was to go to UC
Davis or USC. Now that I have further researched these schools, UC Irvine has grasped my attention. I
explored different medical programs offered there, and came upon some that captivated me. One
program UC Irvine offers is a Sports Medicine Internship. This is a hands-on practice in the medicine
center, allowing you to obtain and explore the different skills and aspects of Sports Medicine. Another
program offered was a minor in Pharmaceutical Sciences. I had never thought about doing anything
learned the excessive amount of school and certification a doctor has to go through. Not only do you
have obtained an undergraduate degree and go to medical school and pass a number of standardized
tests, but you also have to undergo rigorous on the job training, called residency, for two to eight years,
and follow that up with a fellowship (more on the job training). This level of training is intimidating to
me, but it does not affect my passion for wanting to pursue a medical career.
Physical Therapy in Glendale, Arizona. He specializes in recovery plans for athletes. He received his
Doctorate in Physical Therapy from AT Still University of Health Sciences in 2009, and has been
practicing physical therapy since. Eric shared that he has always had a passion for human science and
movement, so in high school he decided to study exercise science, and ultimately became a Physical
Therapist dealing with athletes. I asked Eric what advice he would give someone wanting to pursue a
career in the medical field, and he told me not only do I need to work hard, but it is also important to
think about the environment I want to work in. He shared that he opened up his own practice because he
wanted to work specifically with athletes, as opposed to the general public. This will be something
important for me to consider when I am seeking jobs. Eric also told me that if I choose to open my own
practice I will have to deal with insurance companies. He said that one of the most challenging tasks was
dealing with insurance to get reimbursed for services. This became so frustrating, that he is moving his
practice to private pay. Finally, Eric told me to make sure that medicine is truly what I want to do. The
schooling is extensive and expensive, but the rewards are worth the price.
After completing this project, I feel excited and motivated for what is yet
to come. I am captivated by the many medical opportunities, and hope to one day achieve my goal of
