Hello and welcome!
I'm a professor in biochemistry, thus advise a lot of students on their way to med school. Having been to lots of different kinds of doctors (like so many here), I feel as though I can give an insiders view.
I think you are correct, anything that would require long hours of standing to do surgery would not be the best. My podiatrist and gastroenterologist do procedures that require standing.
How about rheumatology? or endocrinology? or general practitioner? Seems to be a lot of talking, examining patients, and putting puzzles together. especially the first two. or as a GP you could have your own practice and to some extent make your own hours, especially if you had partners.
My rheumatologist is also in private practice with one other rheumatologist and they seem to have a much calmer existence then the doctors I see in practices associated with our local hospitals.
I think its wonderful that you are in med school! You'll make a great doctor just in that you will relate to your patients so well.
Strutsy on her is a doctor in the U.K. She may see this and come on, or you could PM her.
Anyway, welcome aboard!
