Cardiologist
Duties and Responsibilities: Cardiologists are physicians who have received additional
training to prevent, diagnose and treat conditions of the cardiovascular
system, which includes the heart and the body's blood vessels.
Salary: Cardiologists who did not perform invasive
procedures earned between $346,266 and $457,921 per year. Those who did perform
invasive procedures had a salary range of $373,500 to $532,000.
Education: Before practicing as a cardiologist,
physicians must graduate from medical school, complete a residency and become
board-certified in internal medicine, and then complete a fellowship in
cardiology. Cardiology residencies typically last three years, and fellowships
are a minimum of three years, making at least six years of training beyond
medical school.
Reflection: I would not
like to one because they some times have to give bad news and I don’t like
giving bad news. And another reason I wouldn’t like to be one because it not a
very active job.
