 * Personal Thoughts of the Page Author: ** Herman Lopez
 * Family Practice **

Family Practice would be my first choice to be a doctor the reason is that I have always wanted to be a doctor and then I found out that you have to go to medical school for about eight years and even some more if you choose to be a neurosurgeon or some type of doctor that you would have a certain name and can only do that certain job. I wanted to be a Family practitioner because I didn’t want to be some real special doctor and another reason is that if I mess up and I am a family practitioner the out come probably won’t be so bad, now if I was to be aneurosurgeon or some other higher up M.D. job the out come would probably be much worse. Other than that those are the main reasons that I would like to be a family practitioner and also I would have to spend a long, long time in medical school and I think that it would be a great job.
