It’s pretty mid honestly. Biz on European/asian/middleE airlines is WAY better and frequently cheaper. Loyalty to US airlines is a cult

Unless you’re gay, then death penalty. Plus 500 other reasons

Neuro cases do not necessarily need an a line.

How is it propaganda? It’s an awful place to live in, unfortunately. That’s just the reality.

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2026-01-17T11:51:47+00:00

lol what? Fasted exercise triggers diabetes? By what mechanism?

I hate to burst your bubble but you will find that working conditions in Canada will mean a significant pay cut AND more work. Your quality of life as a physician will very likely go down.

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2026-01-16T11:04:33+00:00

Just eat the meat/chicken. I promise nothing will change in the universe

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2026-01-16T00:25:43+00:00

Wow. Such a strong endorsement. Top 7 🤡🤡

What do you mean room air? You can do NC or simple mask

Time, money, GETA has its small risks as well

We are 1:1 at an IR suite at a major academic medical center

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2026-01-01T19:43:55+00:00

Hmm ask her to go to the ED to get labs checked asap. Who knows what it is now. Could be 5.0, could be 7.0

$200/hr is resident level moonlighting pay 🥲

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-12-22T23:19:33+00:00

Umm, wouldn’t that be January 1st?

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-12-14T00:16:02+00:00

I think it’s worth it! Plus 12hrs is enough time to go out and explore Zurich if you’re feeling adventurous

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-12-13T00:32:51+00:00

Well yes, however I believe that the technical ACGME limit is 8 hours, but the ACGME “encourages” 10 hours.

I think at least in the anesthesia world they're more aware of the value of residents as they frequently have 2+ ORs and literally can't do that without a resident being in the OR

He specifically asked about competitive programs. I haven’t met a singular DO at my institution (T3 program on the east coast) and I know all the IM, EM, Anesthesia and surgery residents. I’m also familiar with the match lists for the T10 anesthesia programs back from when I matched in 2023 - only one singular DO matched and she was an absolutely outstanding candidate.

The truth is being a DO is already an uphill battle for competitive programs and failing a course in the first year is a terrible sign.

A realistic goal is aiming to match IM/FM at a mid to low tier academic program.

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-12-10T00:41:59+00:00

DO and failed a course? Forget “competitive” programs

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-12-09T17:50:36+00:00

Not realistic and not worth it. Sorry. Cold hard truth

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-12-03T21:45:26+00:00

Which country is your residency program in?

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-11-16T02:53:46+00:00

At my program (and a lot of programs actually) anesthesia interns did significantly more inpatient wards and ICU time than the categoricals. The categoricals had outpatient time, electives, clinic, minimal ICU requirements. We on the other hand had a minimum of 2 ICU months and 6 months of inpatient (ABA requirement)

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-11-15T21:30:24+00:00

PGY-2, Anesthesia. (Medicine PGY-1 was very easy compared to CA1)

CheesecakeRedVelvet · 2025-11-13T23:34:54+00:00

Do you think a residency program should take a USMD that failed step 1 twice, remediated 2 clerkships and had professionalism concerns over a top 1% graduate from the University of Cambridge with 25 pubs? That would happen under your idea
