Question of the Day

May be a graphic of 1 person and text that says 'Bonnie Taub-Dix Dix October 11 at 11:38 AM So...if you had to do it all over again (education, internship, etc.)- would you still want to be a dietitian and why?'

It was interesting to see responses to this question which ranged from a terse “NO”, to explanations of regretting not becoming an OT or MD…or a forensic pathologist. Here were a few of the answers:

Danielle H. “Yes. It’s what I was born to do. I carved my path carefully and I run an entire surgical program. But I still provide direct patient care. So I have meaningful work, adequate pay and patients who need me.”
Katie H. YES! “I love my business and the freedom it gives me and how I can use my expertise as an RD to help people find peace with food.”
Melinda K. “No. I have way too much debt for how much I make. I’d be something that pays well for less schooling like maybe an LPN or RN with an associates degree…”

❓What would YOU say? Are you glad you became a dietitian? Do you regret it? Would you rather be doing something else? Leave a comment!
