I'm sure pilots have their gripes too but pursuing a career in NHS medicine in the UK is worth neither the time or money. I'm almost certain I would go to the grave regretting not exploring this career.

it’s your life not theirs.
One of my children is a Dr and is thinking of applying for the BA academy.
