Why I chose to be a Naturopathic Doctor and NOT a Medical Doctor

Many people wonder why I chose a profession that makes less money and has less status, yet still takes 4 years of school and thousands of dollars of tuition. At first I wanted to become a MD, but after shadowing many practitioners, I discovered it is not for me. In this video I share one of the reasons why I chose not to become a MD, and later on decided to become a ND.

I hope that my video can help you decide what path you want to take if you are having a hard time deciding between the naturopathic and conventional medical field.

Please know this video and future videos are NOT intended to throw shade at medical doctors. I value medical doctors and their role in society. They do very important work. Their lifestyle just didn't fit me, just like how I am not meant to be a carpenter, a police officer, a chef, etc. There are so many different roles one can take in the healthcare field. I have chosen the Naturopathic role because it is the one that best fits my values and desired lifestyle.
