Actually, the doctors I knew well did precisely that, and because the scope of medicine was wide enough that one could easily be a doctor without being a surgeon, those who had an aversion to surgery simply went into internal medicine or pediatrics or psychiatry or something where they let others do the cutting. Being a pilot, on the other hand, means you really do have to pilot an airplane. Your comparison is apples to oranges.
At the present time you don’t really have the insight to know if being a pilot is right for you or not. As a previous poster suggested, take a discovery flight or similar to start developing adequate understanding and insight into the CAREER to see if you wish to pursue it (and perhaps determine if you have an aptitude for it) BEFORE expending vast amounts of borrowed resources on a career path you might find you neither like nor are particularly good at.
THAT is the advice most of us would give and if that sounds to directive to you I’m sorry, but advice is by its very nature directive.
