Future Career: What a Maternal-Fetal Specialist Does The beginning of my teenage years was filled with in-and-out hospital visits. I had the chance to meet a variety of different people who were nurses, doctors, and doctors. My aspiration for the medical field came from the experience of being a real patient. Each nurse and doctor explained to me what it takes to offer their customers the best service. These amazing human beings paid close attention to every detail and pursued every need to make sure you were as comfortable as possible and on the road to recovery; as if it were their destiny. Being in this environment inspired me to separate myself from the medical field. I wanted to care for others the same way my nurses and doctors had done for me. I want to give my future patients the feeling of stability in their journey to keep their health in tip-top shape and do everything they can to heal/maintain any further illnesses. During my teenage years, I paid a lot of attention to what I really liked and loved. I believe that if I chose something that I truly value, my future field of study wouldn't feel like a job, it would feel like a purpose. Due to my daily life encounter, I decided that becoming a maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) specialist, also known as a perinatologist, would be the best fit for me. I have the education and learning ability to become an expert in high risk pregnancies will be quite difficult. Ahead of me I will have many exams, tests, homework, long study sessions and a lot of stress. Moreover, this will be my path to success. The satisfaction I will get from being able to keep a mom as healthy as possible while her body changes and her baby grows will be worth it. My passion and positive attitude towards this career, I believe, will keep me committed and ready to do what I can to continue my studies in Maternal-Fetal Medicine
