CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!

Duties and Responsibilities: Otolaryngologists, like other physicians, must keep accurate records of their findings, diagnoses and treatments of patients. Doctors in private practice must also deal with making reports to insurance companies, negotiating for payment from insurance and the day-to-day operations of a small business -- hiring and managing personnel, complying with local licensing requirements and paying utilities. To maintain board certification as an otolaryngologist, the doctor must complete continuing education credits each year.
Average Salary: The average annual otolaryngologist salary is around $325,000, or $156 an hour.
Educational Requirements: Otolaryngologists are physicians (MDDOMBBSMBChB, etc.) who, in the United States, complete at least five years of surgical residency training. This is composed of one year in general surgical training and four years in otolaryngology–head and neck surgery. (In the past it varied between two and three years of each.) In Canada, practitioners complete a five-year residency training after medical school.Following residency training, some otolaryngologists complete an advanced sub-specialty Fellowship where training can be 1–2 years in duration. In the United States, otolaryngology is one of the most competitive specialties in medicine in which to obtain a residency position following medical school.

Reflection: Personally I would love to one day be able to become an Oto;aryngologists so I can be able to help those who are in need of my assistance.
