My Profession

Currently I am an undecided major which means that I don’t really know what I want to do. They say that the typical college student changes their major four times on average. I feel like there is no way that I could know what I want to do for the rest of my life. Although I don’t know for sure what I want to major in there are some specific fields of study that do interest me. One of these fields would be the Pre-Health Profession.

In this field people would major in a generic field of study, usually science related, and then go on to graduate school to fill the requirement for their expertise. People in the Pre-Health profession can go on to work as a variety of different things based on their graduate schooling, for example someone could become a generic doctor, surgeon, or even a physical therapist.

I began to become fascinated with health when I brutally broke my ankle playing football in my senior year of high school. I was completely hopeless and very broken down physically as well as mentally. I was taken care of by a Health Professional and after surgery was literally able to get back onto my feet again. Health interested me so much because I know how thankful I was for the team of professionals to help me. After my incident I realized that giving good health is one of the best things you can give someone and to be honest I think I would really enjoy the feeling of helping people who are truly in need.

I would say that some of the most exciting people in the Health profession are the surgeons on the edge of ground breaking techniques and technology. With the way that technology is advancing, surgeons keep improving their techniques so that their patients have a better recovery time as well as many other benefits.

Some of the top journals in the health profession are Bulletin of the World Health Organization, Health Affairs, and Health Economics. All three were published in the United states.
