But, one thing that\u2019s always very rewarding that gets him through the difficult times is the gratifying feeling that patients have when they see the results, know they\u2019re doing well, and express their appreciation for what he\u2019s done and the hard work he\u2019s put in.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a1d4103 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a1d4103\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Dr. Michael Shanik has also been fortunate to participate in a number of ground-breaking clinical trials that have established some changes in how diabetes is treated and managed today.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-785943e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"785943e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The advice that Dr. Shanik would give to a medical student just about to enter into practice in endocrinology would be that there\u2019s a lot of opportunities and you should get involved in different aspects of care\u2014not only different types of treatment, but also in research or even teaching. He recommends this because he finds that it makes his daily routine more varied and helps him get through some of the difficult, stressful times when he\u2019s overwhelmed. He also believes that being involved in different things helps him be a more well-rounded physician.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-381d273 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"381d273\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70e35aa e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"70e35aa\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f935518 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f935518\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.m3globalresearch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/endocrinology.jpg\" title=\"endocrinology\" alt=\"endocrinology - physiology\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4cdf99e elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"4cdf99e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a9ad78 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1a9ad78\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Dr. Michael Shanik believes the main challenge for physicians in the future is keeping up with the field the physician is in; understanding the latest research, how to apply it, and the different guidelines unveiled as new treatments become available. An additional challenge he notes is managing the practice that physicians are working in, understanding the challenges of managing the paperwork, requirements, authorizations, and the logistics of a busy practice\u2014all while maintaining quality care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-473dae4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"473dae4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Because he is drawn to an area of specialty like endocrinology, that has the direct ability to evaluate a condition, be able to treat it, and improve outcomes, if Dr. Shanik were ever going to switch to a different area of specialty, he would look for something similar in that regard, such as cardiology. He notes that the cardiology practice area has also established myriad treatments that offer a long-term benefit for the patient.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2cb2c2e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2cb2c2e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Because Dr. Shanik has always been an avid sports fan, if he ever chose to leave medicine altogether, his dream job would be to become a professional athlete. He was always a baseball fan and played for many years and is an avid Yankees fan, so he would likely choose to be a pro baseball player. When Dr. Shanik is not busy practicing medicine, he likes being involved in varied activities. He goes to the gym regularly and likes to spend time with his family. He has two very active daughters and spending his free time with them is always enjoyable.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element
