Ear, Nose
and Throat (ENT) Surgeon
Duties and Responsibilities:
They study the ear, nose and throat and their
conditions/illnesses. They may also be refereed to Otolaryngology-Head surgeon.
It is the oldest medical specialty in the United States, where nearly 50% of
all office visits pertain to the ear, nose and, throat. Their nicknames are
ENT's and they often treat ear infections on children, who may need surgery.
Salary: $205,000 per year
Educational Requirements:
They must complete at least 5 years of surgical residency
training. This is also composed of 1 year of general surgery, or 4 years of Otolaryngology.
In Canada they must complete a 5 year residency training program after medical
school. Students should emphasize science and English classes the most.
Reflection:
No I would not like to be one, I want to be a more
specialize surgeon, not just a ear, nose, and throat surgeon. I also want to
make more money than this, I feel like it is worth it to be stuck in school a
little more so you can be better.
