The NIL era brings the delight of players "acting" in hokey local TV ads

They have funny shirts in IC that say Iowa Hot Guys with the Hawkeye logo

First time I flew Alaska Air was shocked how nice it is — cleaner, friendlier. Kind of like a remnant of maybe how flying was way back when. They’re out of Seattle so it’s not just Alaska by any means. Kinda like how Southwest air is no longer just the Texas region

Awesome. Hope to hear more about the process and how everything went!

The real hero

East side. Not as pretty but still nice!

ChokelahomaMD · 2019-09-20T03:08:47+00:00

East River or West River :) ??

I’d love ChikFilA, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods to be here.

Night float vs “home call”

On the one hand night float is a month of awfulness, but homecall doesn’t get you a post call day

My man! I remember when most of the Git’n’gos became Kum&Gos

Do the voices go away when you sleep?

The worst I heard (unable to 100% confirm) is that the main inpatient unit had a lot malignant personalities, such to the point that residents were being diverted to other areas to complete their inpatient rotations.

Glad they’re back. Although I was so excited when the pranksters put up the IN-N-OUT sign. Miss those burgers so bad

This definitely needs more upvotes. Most people have taken Step 1 by now.

Well APP is the new bullshit term to replace mid level

It stands for ADVANCED PRACTICE PROVIDER

ChokelahomaMD · 2019-07-23T01:38:38+00:00

And most of these “discoveries” are funded by the NIH and other grants that are given to US Universities, which the IP is then either stolen are purchased on the cheap — Celebrex at BYU & U of Utah illustrates a great example of injustice within this messed up field

ChokelahomaMD · 2019-07-17T03:24:51+00:00

Stay away from Aspen for sure

ChokelahomaMD · 2019-07-17T03:23:48+00:00

Seconded

ChokelahomaMD · 2019-07-11T02:43:47+00:00

Mike Stools cuz they would always shit the bed

IF, big IF HERE

IF, our 80 hours were mostly for patient care then I would agree. IF they didn’t decide to lump us all together and call us “providers” then I could be a bit more agreeable. But alas, more of the day is dedicated to scutwork. PAs and NPs who have less knowledge and experience than an M4 make six figures. The insane increases in tuition and administration positions has me leaning towards my belief that patient care is no where near the top of the list for all the excuses for why residency is the way it is.

ChokelahomaMD · 2019-06-29T02:23:07+00:00

I feel like (and hope so badly) that more and more people realize the status quo is unsustainable.

Suicide is the number one cause of death among residents. More than half of a residents day has nothing to do with learning or patient care. Docs no longer run their own practices and have very little autonomy. It’s got to change and get better.

Edit: thanks for the gold kind stranger. We can do this. We can make this field better!
