My own pediatrician from many moons ago; also initiially i wanted to be and emergency room doc but after stating med school and doing rotations ER medicine wasn't what i thought it was; surprisingly i enjoyed my peds rotations the most; i felt like i could relate to the kids and enjoyed speaking with parents about their children; an acting internship and other peds elective rotations too proved to be my favorite and so my peds journey began
