Not everyone who attends medical school goes on to do a residency. And for different reasons, not all physicians finish a residency. What kind of opportunities are available if this happens to be you? The short answer is, there are an infinite number of options. Today, we’re revisiting a popular past episode where Dr. John Jurica, host of the Physicians Nonclinical Careers Podcast, discussed the wide variety of options for MD and DO graduates. He also offers a simple 3 step approach for moving forward to find a new direction for yourself.
