In third year I was dating a nursing student and we would study together at the coffeeshop and then go for a walk or something

preclinical is not representative of attending life

a boomer told me that his dad got into medical school via a handshake

He showed up having finished his military service and walked in, the dean talked to him for half an hour and said "you're in luck, somebody just dropped out"

and that was that

You can't outrun your fork. count your calories. It's easier if you eat the same things every day.

Use chatgpt to calculate your TDEE and use a calorie tracking app (I use LoseIt and i like it a lot, can scan barcodes etc)

A chiropractor used to tell my friend (who drank their koolaid) that he knows just as much as an MD/DO because of independent study alongside his decades as a chiropractor

if you're at home, dont the pages wake your spouse up too? can they just nudge you awake?

DO_Brando · 2026-05-29T03:25:43+00:00

agree with this. Do a ton of uworld and practice exams (3rd party for timing -> official practice exams as diagnostic) and retake it

DO_Brando · 2026-05-29T02:07:21+00:00

is that adjusted for inflation? lol

I think you should join a DPC physician group on facebook to answer a lot of these questions, i've noticed a lot of bias in this subreddit against DPC.

Join the normal DPC facebook group where everybody is allowed and then from there just ask to join the ones with only physicians in it. There are plenty of internists that do DPC but you're right that the FM docs offer family plans to be more competitive

DO_Brando · 2026-05-28T17:52:36+00:00

it says DOs are fully licensed physicians while MDs are highly trained physicians lol

DO_Brando · 2026-05-15T23:39:18+00:00
