How I fell in love with my field:I completed my postgraduate training in internal medicine with the initial goal of becoming a cardiologist. Little did I know that my second year in neurology would be a life-changing experience. This internship provided me with an unprecedented insight into the advances in neurological care and a completely different perception of the field of neurology. It was then that I wholeheartedly decided to study neurology.
