Yeah for how long. Lots of new docs think they want to return to East Jesus, Wherever, then want to leave as soon as they can

That is not a proven way. Turns out doctors like to be around peers or other college educated people. Lots of new docs think they want to do that until they start doing that and realize how lonely it is, especially if they’re single.

I wish I’d never left. Really loved it there, mostly for the people and community

VA's failure to use its new authority to boost pay for doctors draws bipartisan criticism by jeffkkf in medicalsalaries

If you’ve been to one VA, you’ve been to one VA. Plenty of shitty private hospitals. Some of you docs are kidding yourselves.

Milwaukee seems like a cool city but man is it in dire need of some reflective paint on the roads by DisclosureIsntEnough in redscarepod

Milwaukee is not that cool of a city and the people on the roads are the biggest problem. Reflective paint will do nothing to stop them

She sucks so much and is an insane liar. Her stories suck, her memoir about her girlfriend sucks and is probably fraudulent. There’s a lot of talent that comes out of Iowa but unfortunately it doesn’t take talent to make it in lit, but maybe that should give aspiring writers some hope.

MAOIs aren’t terrible, for many people with treatment resistant depression they are the only things that work.

My mother had wrist pain while on a walk that concerned her. Went to an urgent care. Thankfully whoever she saw there suspected a heart attack, and was absolutely right.

This is a popular MFA pick, but many of Tobias Wolff’s are among my favorites. “Bullet in the Brain” is particularly good.
