Which specialty would be most helpful for potential part time work later on post residency / cert?

I left management consulting for medicine and may consider far down the role trying to do some more business / advisory work on the side. Thinking maybe something like PE, VC, management, pharma.. honestly not quite sure.

Are there specialties in particular that would be more helpful?

Would GP be more relevant than something like Psych (does it come off too specialised?)

Thanks in advance!

I’m a family practitioner and I had the opportunity to do many diverse part time and full time jobs as listed:

College health physician with summers off.
Urgent care physician doing average 3-4 shifts/week.
County health clinic physician covering about 3 days/week.
Disability evaluations for veterans benefits at VA hospital.
Hospitalist.
Lab director and center medical director for a large international plasma center.
Covering team sports physician (on site for high school).
Principal investigator for Pharma Clinical trials.

And many more that I did not pursue in order to maintain a satisfactory work- family life balance.

I wanted to be a psychiatrist and looking back I’m glad I took my sister’s advise ( she’s now a rheumatologist) as I feel that these varied experiences keep me excited to learn and grow.

Hope it is relevant to your query!

Good luck!

GP or emerge probably will give you the broadest knowledge base in the shortest amount of time. For a lot of the other fields completing 5-7 years of post med school training means you will be a lot older and very siloed. Typically at that point in your career sacrificing a staff salary to do something else will be tough. Another point of consideration is that to have value as a KOL to some of the roles you listed requires being a leader in the field which entails research and a whole set of other problems.
