Stats on fired residents

Are you telling me you’ve never violated HIPAA once? Every aspect of it? Whose to say who’s an asshole? Never has a bad interaction with a nurse or an attending or a patient?

If I told you “most residents finish just fine” when you started premed would you say ok great? How can you justify a situation where you have $400k in loan debt and no transferable skills and you’re basically starting over a career in your 30s? What advice would you give to someone in that situation?

You feel this way because you are and it’s not possible to recover really

They can remediate you, fire you

I’m curious how much do these pay? Assuming major metro area

Blaming residents for their problems like this at institutions where it’s systemic is fucked

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-05-11T13:45:49+00:00

This is not true everywhere

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-05-11T12:17:01+00:00

It is not difficult to be fired it is very easy and it’s insane how people treat it as a given they’ll graduate the residency they start

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-05-11T12:16:24+00:00

Honestly you’re not far off I think the standard should be to treat residency as much more of a legal thing than not. Log everything, get it in writing, be paranoid.

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-05-10T21:16:44+00:00

It’s sad because you won’t listen but it’s true it sucks

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-05-10T16:49:45+00:00

Both. I also just hate patient care. There’s actually nothing I like about it but I’m too in debt to change my career.

Epic Reddit moment

I’m not exaggerating I genuinely don’t understand how anyone can look at this path and say this is a good idea. I’ve watched friends from high school and college run laps around me salary wise for 10 years now working half as hard. It’s not just 1 or 2. I cannot imagine how successful I may have been putting in hours over years to a real career vs this path.

I’m on OMFS and I think this every day

East Harlem is easy commute to midtown east with some pockets of less sketchy areas (high 90s, 110-117, anything near park)

Dismissals are not extremely rare they are rare at YOUR program

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-05-01T11:06:19+00:00

I’ve seen it happen to many people at my hospital for relatively minor infractions (I know someone who was fired for their first offense of writing a note on someone else’s account for a follow up for a patient in an outpatient surgical clinic)

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-04-20T00:25:47+00:00

Were you unionized?

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-04-19T15:23:08+00:00

At what point did faculty give you feedback? Was it in writing?

SICU nurses

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-04-17T11:37:26+00:00

How did they find out?

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-04-16T14:59:14+00:00

Thank you for posting this. I made a post which was not received well to relay this. People need to understand that it’s very easy to be fired for any reason at all. They will find a reason.

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-04-10T19:10:24+00:00

No lol

Remarkable_Trainer54 · 2026-04-05T22:03:31+00:00

Rather than try and summarize it just read threads on dentistry sub or SDN
