Becoming a doctor may be your dream when you were still a child. However, when you realize that it is quite hard or even almost impossible for you to become a doctor, you can still choose another profession that is still in the field of health. If you have not known yet, there are still plenty other professions that are also paid well enough, such as phlebotomist, radiology tech, and ultrasound tech.
A phlebotomist is someone who performs phlebotomy, a radiology tech is someone who operates radiology equipments, and an ultrasound tech is someone who operates equipments used by sonographers for medical purposes. Now, how well those professions are paid? According to a reliable source, a phlebotomy can get from $24,000 up to $40,000 per year, while a radiology tech usually gets about $48,000 per year. As for ultrasound technician, it is said that ultrasound technician wages are around $60,000 per year. Those are the salaries of those professions in the US. However, those salaries are still considered as relatively high salaries even in the US.
So, becoming one of those professions if you cannot become a doctor is not bad at all, is not it?
