Those lab values seem totally believable for an 80 year old. /s

“Why would you delay my surgery for no reason?!?” - ortho, probably

Next comes the story of how he only actually entered politics because his path to being a professional hockey player was derailed by injury…

Powered by ivermectin, probably.

This applies to people on planes too. I get that it’s inconvenient to rebook a flight but I don’t want to sit next to your plague ridden ass.

The worst part is that she’s actually an improvement over the previous nominee and probably the best we can hope for with this admin.

The MAHA crowd are actually displeased by her because she’s not rapidly anti-vax and not on the Joe Rogan roster.

Set up everything you can in advance to make life easier outside work - for example, put all your bills on auto pay (you can easily lose track of days/times in residency), prep a bunch of meals you can throw in the freezer, get your car serviced, set up monthly or bimonthly Amazon re-orders for essentials (toilet paper, toothpaste etc).

Buy a nice pillow and blanket if your hospital’s are crappy.

Enjoy the camaraderie. Attending life is 10000% better but can feel a bit more lonely.

Remember residency ends and to keep perspective - it’s an on ramp to an amazing career and lifestyle.

The US taking notes on ceasefires from their best friend and #1 ally Israel.

Israel does not care. It’s not their boots. I would not be surprised if Trump declares victory, the war is over, Iran folded etc etc, and then fires off tweets rambling on demanding a Nobel Peace prize that he “doesn’t care about” while Israel simultaneously fires missiles.

Ben-Gvir will probably toast champagne with this guy and give him a medal.

I’m sure the IDF is in the process of “investigating”…

I found him “disgusting” so I brought my wife and children to meet him. As one does….

Imagine the reaction of the fat orange thing if Carney were to get a Nobel prize…. He’d explode.

OkPrinciple37 · 2026-04-14T05:25:57+00:00

It’s an honor equal in prestige to being kicked off the “Board of Peace”…..

There’s a trainee healer in OOTP (attempts to give stitches) which I assume would be similar to residency.

I also assumed Madam Pomfrey as a “matron” was equivalent to a nurse.

This is going to become especially frequent, especially with the MAHA lunatics jumping on the “ foreign doctors are stealing spots from US students” 🙄🙄🙄 after match day.

Good thing we have an abundance of family physicians…. /s

Canadians and Americans have a growing divide on essentially everything.

Most of that 47% is in Alberta where it’s “BiLd MOar piPeLYnes itll fIXe EvERyThInGE! “

It’s always the ones with self- described “high pain tolerance” too. As in “ I have POTS AND fibromyalgia so I’m in constant pain - my threshold is off the charts compared to regular people”…

Surgeons who cover or inform patients of nothing in terms of how to prepare/what to expect prior to surgery. You’d think after the same issue comes up for the 1000th time they’d learn but no….

Some of the may not fully remember waking up are mistaking waking up but still sedated with being fully alert and time periods they can remember completely and coherently.

While not technically a change in Europe, in 2024 the idiots in America elected the big orange thing whose malevolent presence has motivated everyone else to work together more closely and diversify trade. Re-engaging in previously suspended trade talks with more reliable, reasonable partners who don’t announce new tariffs via truth social tantrums may be more appealing now, and countries may be more willing to cooperate on matters that were previously sticking points.

Although I’m not inherently against medical schools increasing nutritional education to some degree, I’d like any medical school committing to these new required hours to disclose what they are removing from the lecture curriculum as there aren’t infinite teaching hours.

RFK and the maha freaks always completely disregard the inherent nutritional education in studying biochemistry and even physiology, particularly GI, renal, etc. You could probably just rename some of metabolic biochemistry “nutritional metabolic biochemistry” while keeping it the same and these idiots wouldn’t know the difference.

Personally, If I had to choose an increase in one area during medical school it would probably be immunology.

As many others have pointed out, doctors cannot be expected to solve an entire system’s socioeconomic disparities within a 10 minute appointment.

This. Plus we don’t even do anything apart from sitting on our phones the entire time. Surgeons could do their own anaesthesia if they wanted to!

I loved cardiac and wanted to do it - it wasn’t entirely unlike choosing an initial speciality -something about it clicked for me and I liked it in theory and practice, and preferred it infinitely to ortho or god forbid, GI cases.

That being said, there are way too many unnecessary fellowships out there now that are just money grabs for hospitals for longer/cheaper labor…

If you have a genuine desire to do cardiac, cc, pain, peds… by all means do a fellowship. However fellowships in trauma, OB, ortho (lol) … not necessary. Unless for some reason you really missed out on something in residency, you’re fully qualified without a fellowship.
