That is always an option to go for an MD/PhD.

I think your interest is certainly more consistent with being a researcher. Neurologists rarely ‘save’ people’s lives. For the longest time, the joke was that a neurologist could tell you what was wrong but couldn’t do anything about it. Still neurologists can have a pronounced effect on the quality of a person’s life, even if they aren’t ‘saving’ it per se.
