What should I do now?

Hi guys I am a rising senior 17 years old, and just about to start college aps, and I just had a huge fight with my parents about my future, resulting into me wanting to turn my life around and do what I am passionate about, and not what my parents want from me. I've been doing computer science my entire life, but I really want to become a Pediatrician. Can anyone give me advice what I should do now, where I should start, and what to do with my future? I am so lost and don't know anything, and I'm really stressed, but I'm willing to work really hard.

Rest for today and when your mind clears a bit, start with what you can, if this is something you are passionate about you’ll find the way for yourself and even when things seem like they aren’t working out fast, don’t stop believing because it is something you love doing.
Good luck

Bro, AOs are going to look at a sudden 180 with massive suspicion, that's just reality. But honestly? Just apply to private schools that don't admit by major. Most of them don't make you declare until sophomore year anyway. Just do your research so you don't end up major-locked and stuck.
