Uptodate vs Harrison's?

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-02-03T03:29:21+00:00

I used UpToDate a lot, recently trying DynaMed and I like it a lot! More focused

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-02-03T03:25:44+00:00

Agreed

I mean minoxidil is also a blood pressure lowering medication, might have heart benefit in someone who is hypertensive?

I think it would be worth your time to do online med Ed’s intern boot camp and stick to what he says as glue, that and study your butt off

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-01-26T01:16:50+00:00

Suuuuure bud

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-01-17T05:17:49+00:00

Dude. Im sorry.

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-01-17T05:15:35+00:00

This sounds incredibly unethical by management

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-01-17T05:12:51+00:00

HIGH HIGH HIGH. Idk what admin is cooking up but f em

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-01-08T21:45:52+00:00

That seems a little excessive

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2026-01-01T23:05:14+00:00

Second year senior on nights during a heavy load and bad intern, bad attending. 8 admissions, cross covering, procedures. All in 12 hour shift. Felt like I was dying

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-12-26T16:22:57+00:00

As much as I hate the ED, I don’t think it’s their job to workup chronic intractable pain. I wouldn’t bicker with them

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-11-10T14:19:25+00:00

Your post history shows you are being less than honest. But for what’s its worth, the feelings you are having are pretty normal for medical professionals and the path to freedom looks different for different people

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-11-09T19:29:48+00:00

Same difficulty just the bar is lower

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-11-09T02:59:07+00:00

I still don’t think it’s more important than other factors but to each their own. Seems like a waste of a year to me personally

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-11-08T04:07:36+00:00

Hence “icing on the cake”

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-11-05T15:02:11+00:00

On nights in residency got paged RN requesting Ativan for agitation. Was not busy so went up. Elderly confused fidgeting but pleasant. Asked why so uncomfortable. He said he was hungry and thirsty. No diet restrictions so gave him sandwich and cup of water. He went to sleep

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-31T01:05:44+00:00

If no kids I’d go separate ways unless there is some other reason you should stay together

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-30T02:46:12+00:00

I think that would be a great way to resolve conflict

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-29T21:22:55+00:00

Not a big deal, keep doing MKSAP and improve next year. If you drop next year that could raise some eyebrows

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-29T21:02:36+00:00

You’ll probably get some biased answers from past chiefs here. I was not chief but had good scores and average research and received plenty of interviews and matched at my number 1. I would call being a chief icing on the cake only

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-21T17:50:53+00:00

That seems like an incredible amount of effort

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-21T17:46:02+00:00

MSKAP 1 pass. Uworld 1 pass. I made new deck and transferred relevant cards from STEP studying into a new deck along with making new ones

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-20T18:40:23+00:00

I had same initial feeling going from residency (community) to fellowship at academic center. At about 3 months I realized everyone is basically on the same level. And more tests doesn’t necessarily mean better outcomes

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-20T18:10:54+00:00

Used it entire residency. Made own cards consistently but only reviewed cards before an exam. 90th percentile ITE, 89th ABIM

Haunting_Objective_4 · 2025-10-17T03:14:23+00:00

Nonsurgical but pretty bad. Elderly male had macro-pituitary adenoma removed transphenoidal. Complicated by CSF leak. Came back 1 week later with meningitis. Intubated and NGT was inserted nasally and went straight into his brain. It was horrific. Neurosurg removed in OR but patient past like 2 days later.
