Anesthesiology

Duties and responsibilities: Anesthesiologists are the physicians trained to administer and manage anesthesia given during a surgical procedure. They are also responsible for managing and treating changes in your critical life functions - breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure - as they are affected by the surgery being performed.

Salary: $348,831

Education: Before entering college, those interested in a career in anesthesiology need to think about the kinds of classes taken in high school. As with other physician specialties, all future anesthesiologists need to attend a four-year undergraduate program and most will enroll in a pre-medicine or another science-concentrated program, though it is not required. Following graduation, prospective anesthesiologists are required to attend four years of medical school.

Reflection: I think I would want to be this because it involves being a doctor but instead being a doctor like for surgery or something its a doctor for like putting people to sleep before doing surgery.
