I am a undergrad at a school with a pretty good pre-med program. I want to be a doctor, but I'm thinking of taking a year off before going to med school because, in the major that I am in, I only need an additional semester to get my masters in public health. Is it worth it?
Why do so many doctors go back to school to get their MPH? What are the benefits other than gaining more knowledge of the health care system? Namely, what are the tangible benefits?
