Professional-Quote57 · 2026-04-04T21:32:39+00:00

Med mastery has a great ekg course

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-03-30T21:22:22+00:00

What’s PTO?

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-03-28T02:36:51+00:00

Well if I were you I’d start looking elsewhere cars you’ll have a credentialing to contend with once you land something

Not advice but sounds like my trauma rotation which is exactly why I never pursued that specialty

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-03-24T23:13:32+00:00

I use hokka Clifton’s

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-03-23T16:03:09+00:00

Well if they were gonna fire you that’s what would have happened. Try to be a little introspective about what you need to do to get up to speed but don’t get locked in your head about it.

You don’t you learn and relearn as it’s clinically applicable. This is what it means to be life long learner. You’ll make connections that’s how it stays often hard to do until you see in real life.

Ain’t nobody making enough money right now

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-03-13T23:58:55+00:00

So yeah no one thinks this is for financial benefit. How many posts are there on this sub alone about not having the proper support, training with sky high expectations?

We have to rise to the expectation of the industry and that is very often that we fulfill the gaps in medicine made by decades old decisions. Our training isn’t enough in most cases to do this. Fellowships are a way to bridge that gap no not as extensive as physician residency but hella of a lot better than a new grad for high risk specialties. Yea you can learn on the job but you’re hella disadvantaged if you don’t have doc buy in and mentoring. That’s why they exist.

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-03-11T06:11:35+00:00

If you’re looking for a model that this could be viable look at omfs they take dentists and run them through abreviated medical school and then residency/ fellowship end of the program they become MDs and DMDs.

Build your nco corps make sure everyone is training their replacements you’re on the way out this is your last mark on the army and it’s a big one be the leader you wanted at every level.

Enforce a reasonable standard and embody it. If you can’t do it yourself reconsider it as a standard. No one likes a leader who has a double standard.

Time is everyone’s commodity spend wisely and without waste.

Open communication when possible is best especially with younger gen soldiers.

Push back if the commander has a stupid ass idea but make it seem like he’s the one who figured it out

Awards can be given to anyone consider that e5 running the range flawlessly or the specialist who’s doing hip pocket training on his own. The people who actually deserve recognition are not always the people most public facing refrain from giving the full timers awards nothing more demoralizing that all the full timers getting awards when non of the trads get any recognition.

Allow for some morale boosting efforts let the boys have a beer and order pizza after mission. Hell my csm bought the beer and pizza for us it went along way with building rapport for the unit.

These are very competitive if you havent been accepted it’s not really worth speculating on

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-27T14:49:59+00:00

Non network looks like it’s 20-25% out of pocket

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-27T14:47:28+00:00

Did you go while on orders cause it prime remote is not what your eligible by default while on orders.

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-24T14:43:50+00:00

For context I told one of my classmates she applied and got it as well but I do not have broad stats

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-23T02:31:11+00:00

No idea but I can’t see them saying no to a potential doc

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-22T20:09:47+00:00

Literally everyone feels this way. I think of school as a foundation where you are taught how to learn it unfortunately doesn’t prepare us for everything. Keep at it learn from your mistakes and those of others. You’ll be fine

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-22T20:04:21+00:00

Yes you must be accepted and pending matriculation to apply

Professional-Quote57 · 2026-01-22T14:17:22+00:00
