I do not practice medicine in any capacity.  I completed medical school, received my Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree, and then completed two years of residency in Pathology.  But I ended my residency early because I knew I was in the wrong field entirely.  The path of medical school and residency requires you to complete 3 board exams in order to get a license to practice medicine, and then you must continually renew the licensing exams every two years.  I completed my first two exams (which are taken after year 2 and year 4 of medical school) and I very intentionally chose to not complete my 3rd exam (after year 2 of residency) because I knew with 100% certainty (sorry, 200%) that I would never practice medicine, ever.  The practice of medicine means you diagnose diseases and offer either drugs or surgery.  After seven years of medical school and residency where I became fully clear that I was in the wrong career, I made the choice that a license to practice medicine was of zero use to me and my desire to help people heal holistically.  You can read more about my story here.
