Risks

Describe a risk you took that you do not regret.

When I left a secure position as an associate professor at Western, after being denied a promotion to full professor, I had concerns about my future as a private practitioner dedicated solely to hepatology. But my research, teaching, and patient care flourished without the restrictions of university and hospital politics, And it proved at least as remunerative as practice within academia without all the stress and boring committee meetings. No regrets.
