A data point: I didn’t like working with people, and still stupidly applied to med school thinking it didn’t matter. Now I’m a doctor, and patient interaction is one of the things I enjoy the most. I think it’s because my social skills improved. Go figure...
I still wouldn’t recommend applying to med school to improve your social skills, though.

That’s a useful datapoint, thanks.
I social skills tend to improve over time and having good social skills makes social interaction more fun.
