Why would someone want to do this job?
For the past few years I have also been thinking of still working in the hospital becoming an anesthesiologist. I don't really have a good reason but others may want to because they want to work in the hospital, they make good salary, they get to work with different people or just because the want to. I think whatever I do, it will be in the medical field, I just don't know exactly what quite yet.
What is the toughest demand for this job?
Anesthesiologist have to work with patients of all age, and they have to make sure that they are not in any kind of pain. They have to give shots to women in labor or patients right before an operation. The needle has to go in a very specific spot or the patient could be harmed. Not a lot of people want to be responsible for tough jobs like that or just don't have the patients.
