Hey there!
I'm currently in my first year of med school. I always had this passion for medicine as well as art. I initially thought of going to art school but I eventually settled down for med school. I know, there's a big difference between the two fields but I still love both medicine and art.
I didn't really think that medical illustrator or being a medical artist was actually a career or a full time job. I know I'm still in my first year and I have a long way to go before I finally choose how I'm going to serve my occupation. But this, so far, really interests me a lot and seeing this as an actual career made me joyful.
My question is that what are the requirements for becoming a medical illustrator after med school. Keyword "med school". Example do you need a MD and a degree in visual arts etc or something like that? Please let me know if anyone of you reading this knows a bit about the requirements.
I tried searching a few sites but they didn't really help much. I'm actually new to this forum so I'd really appreciate it if someone can help me out over here. Thank you.
