"Yes, I considered working in internal medicine when I started medical school. However, after my rotations, I became more fascinated with radiology and chose this specialty instead."

Dr. Rodman

"Of course. I enjoyed multiple different specialties during medical school. For one, I highly considered applying to general surgery residency. However, I decided that my interests and lifestyle coincided more with radiology. That being said, I have dual applied to both radiology and interventional radiology this cycle. ESIR is a great way to pursue interventional radiology from a diagnostic radiology program."
