Why Did I Become A Doctor?

For some people it’s a calling; for others it’s ‘social conditioning’ which may determine their career paths, as it was when Dr Farouk Satar chose the medical profession because of the expectations imposed by his community. But it was his grandfather who planted the seed of dentistry specifically with the sage advice that choosing to become a medical doctor would leave him with no time for himself or family. With dentistry, however, he had a better chance for a balanced life, was the advice. Learn more about Satar’s journey as a dentist and how he now balances the profession with a newfound business interest in the latest episode of Why Did I Become A Doctor, in partnership with MedicalBrief, which airs on Sunday, 26 April. MedicalBrief subscribers, however, get early access to the interview with Satar.
