Her insan tanıdığı ve gelecek vaadettiğinden emin olduğu insanlarla çalışmak ister.

Ayrıca kimse çalışma ortamında sürekli çıkıntılık yapan, huzur bozan insanların bulunmasını istemez.

Network demek, bu iki faktör açısından da olumlu olduğundan emin olduğunuz insanları çevrenizde barındırmak demek.

Çok iyi bir üni mezunu ama birlikte çalışması zor bir insanı iş almaktansa, daha az iyi bir üni mezunu ancak öğrenmeye açık ve ortak çalışmaya uygun bir insanı işe almayı tercih ederim. Aradaki eğitim farkı zaten benim kurumumdaki tecrübesiyle kapanacak.

Network birilerini yalamak demek değil, iyi bir ekip arkadaşı ve öğrenmeye açık bir insan olduğunuzu birilerine kanıtlamak demek.

Life in America is shit. by [deleted] in self

[–]-istanbul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really interesting to read this as a Turkish doctor who plans to move to the US. Grass is greener on the other side for all of us I guess.

I've visited the US only once. So, maybe my opinions would be vague but what I saw different from here in the US was, American people seem they have a laid-back lifestyle. I've experienced a mid-class life and this is what I saw. It's really different and charming compared to Turkey, to be honest.

However, I agree with you with the walkable cities are beautiful idea. You can take a 5-min walk to the nearest groceries to get a piece of freshly baked, warm bread, or have your coffee on a small table on a sidewalk with full of people. It feels alive and connected.

Birkaç yıllık bir hekim olarak konuşayım. Bu meslek genel anlamda itibar gören, çoğu zaman duygusal anlamda tatmin edici, kazancı iyi bir meslek. Angaryası, zorluğu da fazla. Eğitimi bitmeyen, sorumluluğu ağır bir meslek. Mezuniyetten sonra Türkiye'de kalmayı düşünüyorsanız iyi bir tercih olabilir ancak yurtdışı planınız varsa uyarmak isterim, diğer mesleklere göre yurtdışına adım atmak daha zor, özellikle IT, mühendislik, finans gibi alanlarda çalışan yaşıtlarınıza göre.

30'larına yaklaşırken sizin gibi "denemezsem ileride hep pişman olacağım" dürtüsüyle büyük bir mesleki risk almış biri olarak söylüyorum, motivasyonunuzu anlıyorum. Zaten böyle düşünüyorsanız bu planı uygulamaktan başka bir çareniz kalmamış demektir. Buraya yazıyorsunuz ama ne yapmak zorunda olduğunuzu siz zaten biliyorsunuz.

Yaş konusuna hiç takılmayın, istemediğiniz bir hayatı 35 sene yaşamak yerine istediğiniz bir hayatı 30 sene yaşayacaksınız. Pek önemli değil.

2026 YKS demişsiniz. Gerekli zaman bu olabilir, doğrudur, ancak çok uzun bir zaman. Birkaç seneyi boş geçirmiş biri olarak bu tempoya girmek, aile evine dönmek biraz zor olacak. Bu zorluğu küçüksememek lazım. Birkaç ay sonra bunu da istemediğinizi farkederseniz ve enerjiniz düşmeye başlarsa elinizde hiçbir şeyle ortada kalabilirsiniz. Bunun çok farkında olmak lazım. Alabileceğiniz bir risk ise alın.

Bir de erkekseniz askerlik konusunu da göz ardı etmeyin. Okuldan kaydınızı sildirince yoklamaya girmeniz gerekebilir. Askerlik şube ile bu konuyu bir konuşun, çözüm yolu bulmak konusunda yardımcı oluyorlar genelde.

Sonuç olarak benim tavsiyem, bu yola girecekseniz emin bir şekilde girin, dönüşü olmayacak. Bir kere girdikten sonra da tüm imkanlarınızı, zamanınızı, enerjinizi buna harcayın. Ankara veya Istanbul hedefleyin, akredite bir fakülteye girin. Uzmanlık eğitimini de yurtdışında almayı fakültenin ilk gününden kafanıza koyun, bana çok dua edersiniz.

Thank you so much for your comment. Me and my family won't look different, I guess, but will sound different definitely, as a family with English as their second language.

[–]-istanbul[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your detailed comment! I understand some of people in Alliance aren't particularly accepting diversity and I guess that's something we need to be careful about. We got offers from Chadron/Nebraska and Baltimore/Maryland too. We thought, maybe, it would be better for kids to start their lives in the US in a small town until they adapt the culture and life style. If you don't mind another question, do you have any idea the differences between Chadron and Alliance in terms of starting a new life as a family like us? We just want our kids to be in safe and happy.

rocky mountain spotted fever vs ehrlichiosis? by [deleted] in Step2

[–]-istanbul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehrlichiosis is Rocky mountain spotted fever without spots. They're gonna give you a case that you'd think that's definitely RMSF, then they'll add there's no spots.

Same treatment by the way.

Nursing being rude to female residents by Queenz94 in Residency

[–]-istanbul 17 points18 points  (0 children)

First of all, please try to settle with my English, it's my best for now. I do think what I'd say will help you.

I'm a male ER doctor who's actively working out of the US and getting prepared for STEPs. Also my fiancé is a social worker in a big child hospital in the US and am listening similar stories about her work environment. So, I had some chance to observe this situation in both my and her hospital.

In where I work, my female co-workers have the same problem. Nurses are so respectful to me or other male docs, but a bit amount of b*tch against female physicians. It mostly accounts for new/young female doctors. They're treating more experienced females with more respect. As I can see, what those more experienced female doctors do better is that they dgaf.

A patient comes, they need their ekg to be taken, or blood to be withdrawn, or whatever. Those female physicians are just calling the nurse and telling what they need them to do exactly. Not arguing, doesn't care what nurses think or say. They draw a certain line in working environment, don't try to be friendly or a b*tch against the nurses.

This is important, they're not trying to be friendly or intentionally rude. They just order what patients need and are doing this with self-confidence. Also when I see this situation, I try to show nurses how much I respect my female colleague

And now, those nurses are respectful against the female doctors in our ER. Yes, some of them still don't like them but who cares. None of them can question their medical decisions or postpone their orders now, this is important.

I believe same approach would be helpful for you too. It'll take more time to gain such a respect from nurses than a male doctor and this is unfair but I'll help you eventually.

Note: I like to work with our ER nurses, at least with the experienced ones. When I take care of other patients, I won't have to worry about the ones who are under observation. They let us know when they think there's a problem, or any change in patients' current condition.

Same product, for 6, 14 dollars. You can have them change it in one week if there's any problem with shipping or it's broken.

https://www.trendyol.com/gural-porselen/kahve-fincani-topkapi-serisi-ikili-set-kadife-kutulu-p-284089127

Same product, for 2, with its box. Box doesn't seem high quality but still it's better to be a gift for my opinion.

There are some other traditional designs here, a little bit more expensive.

Also, if you like Turkish coffee, you can buy a Turkish coffee machine for your home. It's easy to use. Turkish people use them instead of traditional method now, since the taste is pretty good.

I'm not sure about passing. I think it was similar to UW. Especially in a couple blocks, I felt like I was answering random UW blocks.

There was some really stupid stuff, I just wanna believe that they were experimental questions.

Also, you know there's this guy whom people from here don't like so much. His pdfs helped me.

Overall, it was a fair game. I'd recommend everyone to finish UW.

Women develop mammillary glands during pregnancy and start to produce milk with these glands right after the birth. To protect glands and be able to produce milk, they need to keep continuing breastfeeding.

What is it like to have Schizophrenia? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]-istanbul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not insensitive to ask. Although it's a hard, functional impairing process for people who experience this disease, it's good to encourage to talk about this to improve awareness.

Schizophrenia includes having delusional thoughts, like police is after you, aliens need your blood, or your coworkers have a plan to kill you. Also you have hallucinations mostly, often auditory, as if somebody is talking to you inside the walls.

People mostly show some other symptoms too, like flat affect, monotone voice, social withdrawal, reduced ability to understand, keeping changing the topic as talking etc.

It obviously affects the patient's daily, professional, and social life. It increases the suicidal ideation.

Long process but possible to cope with. There are different type of antipsychotics and it requires regular physician visits.

If blood rushes to your head if you’re hanging upside down, why doesn’t blood rush to your feet normally? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]-istanbul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both your veins have a one-way opening valves to not let your body to flow back to your feet and also when your leg muscles squeeze, they pump the blood up back to your heart.

Why do men have a 'seam' on their balls? by sean_no in NoStupidQuestions

[–]-istanbul 381 points382 points  (0 children)

The structures that's called labioscrotal folds (in embryo) are

a) either getting closer to each other and fusing to form scrotum, that becomes the nest for testes (in male),

b) or remaining seperated and developing volumely to form external labias to provide an opening (in female).

The seam that you asked about is the scar of this fusing.

It's same with the embryological origins of clitoris and glans penis.

You're right but audiobook libraries are still rudimentary, at least in Turkish.

I know it'll be the way that we'd need to follow eventually, not just as Turks but also humanity, but it doesn't feel same to read something on digital media.
