I (non-US, non-neurosurgeon) work with a lot of neurosurgeons in my daily practice and here’s my two cents on this.
Dude is a neurosurgeon. There are lots of other options for neurosurgeon, and some of them are really rewarding. You don’t like spine surgery because of all the aforementioned reasons? Why not try neuro-vascular surgery, where you cure stroke? Or neurosurgical oncology, where you cure cancer? Or neurosurgical trauma, where you are literally putting people’s head back together.
Dude has a huge dysphoria problem with his job, probably burn-out or something, I don’t know, but throwing away years of educations is kinda wasteful.
