<p>@dina4119 I honestly wasn’t trying to spread false propaganda, I retracted my statement in a latter post. It was just ignorance on my part. That said, I do believe Canada’s healthcare system is flawed. I have several Canadian friends, one of which came here for colon cancer treatment because there was a year long waiting list in Canada, another who had a similar experience but with knee surgery. Pay is not what I was worried about. It’s just an insufficient system that I don’t think America needs to emulate. That will be my last word on politics as well to any worried adcoms. </p>

<p>@frugaldoctor Thank you for mentioning the positives of being a doctor in your reply. Those are the reasons I wanted to become a doctor in the first place and I love that you’re still passionate about your work. It was a reassuring and refreshing change from all the negative examples my doctor friends use to discourage me from pursuing medicine. They really are well-intentioned, just exhausted and perhaps in the wrong line of work.</p>
