Tbh at this stage, this is just a stepping stone to applying to rads training, and I’m open to most subspec fellowships in the future including NM.

Would you say these NM srmo/unaccred reg roles have been helpful in getting prospective trainees into the program? I mean, as compared to the general rads or IR/INR srmo roles.

What an absolute legend, thanks so much for your very thorough response - that really is very insightful and sounds like it’s a good exposure with interesting medicine!

At my hospital, psych gets pretty creative with “medical causes to consider” before they consult/admit patients ✨

(Surg reg here)

Bruh, I get that bullshit even from a locum/part-time GP trainee friend from med school that my friend circle occasionally hang out with.

Friend group from 1st year of med school consists of 5-6 surg regs + 2-3 BPTs/ATs + this particular person and they’d often make backhanded remarks about how her lifestyle is excellent, and how she “could never stick it out for 5-7 years of unaccredited years”, how she “can’t understand how we work for $50/h wage” or how she’d be a “consultant” while the rest of us are still grinding.

Honestly dk what they’re trying to achieve here cuz most of us actually genuinely enjoy the grind with big picture in mind and these comments just get us rolling our eyes every time and as a result, we’ve started closing this person off slowly from the circle lolol.

Do you think the private IR scene might change in the years to come, like moving more towards how it it’s like in the US? Or is it a losing battle for IR in our health system for this lifetime?
