Answer 2

All doctors deal with some form of pharmacology in one way or another. If you are asking what field specifically deals with pharmacology the most then I would have to say probably an M.D phd doing research. Anesthesiologists are involved in a lot more than pure drug interactions. You might consider pharmacy school if it truly is your passion. You will get more pharmacology than you can possible dream of. :) good luck
