I read a lot of posts about going from medic to RN, or medic to PA, but is it common for medics to go actual medical school for their MD's?
It's a long way out, but I've always thought of that as an option once I've completed medic school and grown comfortable in that role. Not to mention that I think having medic training and the experience would go a long way to strengthening your skills as an MD, especially in say, the ER.
Is it common? And for the people who have done it, do they find going through EMS to be beneficial, or would they have rather just jumped into med school at the beginning?
