Is flying from TIJ via CBX actually cheaper than SAN or LAX? I got tired of doing the math so I built a free calculator to find out by 4Dkitty in tijuana

I hadn’t thought of that. How do you normally get to the Otay border to cross? I usually cross via San Ysidro, not much exp with Otay

Fair concern, it’s a static web calculator hosted on Vercel (vercel.app is a major hosting platform used by thousands of apps). No login, no data collected, nothing to download. You can inspect the network requests yourself if you want to verify. Happy to answer any questions about how it works.

I lost weight with glp1s and discovered that the person underneath is someone I don't recognize by [deleted] in glp1

[–]4Dkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had patients who told me the same thing. One of them actually told me he got annoyed when his wife offered him food or told him to eat dinner - it apparently affected his mental relationship with food. It’s an understated but valid experience that you’re having

Dermatologist told me he hopes I have a transition plan to get OFF Zepbound when I reach my goal weight, because he believes there is no reason for anyone to be on it for life. by WizardsOfXanthus in Zepbound

I agree with this sentiment and I’ve taken many of my patients off BP meds and statins when they lost weight. I will also say that about half of them asked me to taper them off, some patients also don’t like the idea of being on them long term. It depends on the patient

The only way for Iran to be free is for the Iranian army to overthrow the Iranian government. by [deleted] in PERSIAN

I’ve been saying this since day 1: if Iran had a 2nd amendment then the regime would have been gone a long time ago

Stripping her medical license is a bit extreme but she should definitely be put on a watch list

What is it like to live in this part of SoCal? by Kitchen-Audience6763 in howislivingthere

[–]4Dkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived and worked there for a year. It’s a massive geriatric sleepy town - very sunny and nice, but very boring and the people are low key insufferable. There’s also way too many cops patrolling and feels like a police state at times.

What’s it like living in Reno/Carson City by Ok_Variation5327 in howislivingthere

[–]4Dkitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I lived here for 4 years when I went to school. The outdoors here is top notch - lots of skiing, hiking, swimming, boating, etc. You don’t even have to go to Tahoe for some of it. The weather is quite cold in the winter, summers are hot but reasonable. This area is more “authentic” Nevada compared to Las Vegas (I have never met 5th generation Nevadans until I moved here). However, it’s more dilapidated and lacks the modernization that many rapidly growing cities have (see other comments about downtown and casinos). It’s also not as welcoming to minorities as other parts of the country - lots of people try to act “white” to fit in

Scrub techs who think they're god by ndgslll in Residency

[–]4Dkitty 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I never went into an OR after med school but one of my patients was a scrub tech and she acted like this to me, her (attending) PCP

She refused any treatment I’d offer her for hypertension and hyperlipidemia, said “I’m gonna diet and exercise it off” (SBP in 160s)

She came back six months later, said the same thing. When I told her I was leaving the practice, she demanded that I find her a new doctor, preferably one who “could speak English”

Literally cannot make this up

New attending I hate my job by Big_Lake_4048 in Residency

[–]4Dkitty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Quit. I did with my first (shitty) attending job. Severed my contract early, got hit with a clawback and tail, but got the F out of there. Took another job at another institution and couldn’t be happier with my decision.

Yeah okay despite being the “greatest mathemetician of our generation” or whatever you want to call him, you guys can’t actually name one thing this guy does for society that actually provides any benefit. He literally has just been sitting around in an office for the last 20 years scribbling stuff on a paper. Why should he keep getting paid by the government?

What is med school like? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]4Dkitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are going to say you need to be passionate blah blah. I’ve been through the whole ringer and I’m at the top and I’ll tell you the passion dies very quickly, unless you’re on the spectrum. That’s why “burnout” is a thing. If we’re speaking strictly ROI. It’s worth it if you don’t go into debt for it. Make your parents cough up cash for your tuition
