SEND US A TEXT MESSAGE!!! Let Drs. Nii & Renee know what you think about the show!What’s good everyone! Dr. Sylvie Stacy, author of 50 Nonclinical Careers for Physicians, jumps on the hot seat to talk about choosing not to practice clinically. Yes, I said it! There are a bunch of medical students, residents, and doctors who deep down know that clinical medicine ain’t for them. Who do they talk to? Where can they find out next what to do? Dr. Sylvie Stacy is a preventive medicine specialist living and practice in Birmingham, Alabama. She received her MD from UMass Medical School and completed her residency and earned an MPH at Johns Hopkins. Dr. Sylvie went through something similar, but decided to help others by creating a website that inventoried jobs looking for physicians. She didn’t stop there and wrote this great book.
