Many Filipinos – or Asians, for that matter – were told growing up that being a doctor was the best career. You get to save lives, but more importantly, you also get a ton of money and a lifetime of respect. How much of this is true, and how much of it is a trap?
In this episode of I've Got An Opinion, Rappler’s podcast on ordinary people speaking up on extraordinary issues, Rappler Opinion Editor Marguerite de Leon talks to writer and newly-licensed physician Ralph Fonte, who graduated as a medical doctor from the University of the Philippines College of Medicine after finishing 4 years of coursework and one year of internship at the Philippine General Hospital.
