I hated EM as a student and for my first couple of rotations. I was streaming for surgery and couldn’t understand why Thr emergency department kept making such stupid admissions for us.

By the time I’d seen a couple thousand patients in the ED, I was much more comfortable and now intend to complete training there (also, I can do it part time given my other commitments). I’d prefer to be ok at most things (ie retain my general medical knowledge) and good at critical care but that’s more because I work so infrequently now, and have found that I value being a generalist... abuse of ED docs decisions be damned!
