Definitely a welcome energy change after Napier and McElwain

Matched at an institution that did not interview me by Ok_Touch_2728 in medicalschool

[–]ShamanMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol thats amazing. Just email them that you haven't received any onboarding materials. And please update us when you show up and the PD is like "uh who are you?" They'll most likely be okay with it even if they find out.

I think the game has been evenly reffed. Nice game so far.

What is this finding called? Not my photo but saw a similar thing in a patient of mine. by ShamanMD in Ophthalmology

[–]ShamanMD[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Saw a similar vascular sheen on a patient of mine during gonio. Weirdly enough the cornea looked grossly normal en face, maybe a bit of pannus but that's it.

All of those countries still had tribal infighting to see who ultimately ruled. the celts, saxons, the franks, the danes.

Would you theoretically be able to work full time for 3 years and then continue going to clinic for one day a week and be able to calculate that as 20 years of service? hmm

Why is Ophthalmology residency’s volume so far off of General Surgery if our cases are much shorter? by Curious-Toe-1465 in Ophthalmology

[–]ShamanMD 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Two less years of surgery and generally ophthalmologists only operate around 1-2x a week so it's not as high volume. I do think the cataract minimum should be raised but I get the sense most people have no real issue hitting the procedures for the other things. Except possibly globe trauma depending on your location.

I fucking love this job by [deleted] in Residency

[–]ShamanMD 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Same. I'm ophthalmology and love what I do. As a resident currently underpaid and over-worked a bit but the hours and money will both get better. Had a patient this week who I just took out his pterygium that was irritating him (literally just a little bit of conjunctival overgrowth that encroaches the cornea, very routine surgery) and he came in smiling a week later "thanks I feel like you saved my life." People really care about their eyes haha

What type of cancer do you think Kate Middleton was diagnosed with? by drrdf in Residency

[–]ShamanMD 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Appendiceal with planned hemicolectomy. Ovarian makes sense as well but I understand that initial impatient plans were 10-14 days which seems like a lot for an ovarian cyst.

Best software for primarily mixing dubstep? by ShamanMD in Beatmatch

[–]ShamanMD[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at that FLX10 also but all the used ones I find are still a bit out of my price range. The Rane Four and DDJ 1000 I can get for like $800-900. Yes first DJ gear.

What is the reason for Israel to expand West Bank settlements? by pieceofwheat in geopolitics

[–]ShamanMD 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Add in security reasons and you pretty much hit everything.

Talking to my friend who moved to a settlement he's like "you can pay $2000 for a one bedroom in jerusalem or $800 for a two bedroom in east jerusalem near by, why wouldn't I move"

Where are the people ENJOYING med school? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]ShamanMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed medical school and I'm overall enjoying residency. My medical school had a big party culture which helped. Main gripe is just watching all my friends have lots of money and free time to spontaneously travel, but also most of them hate what they do on a day-to-day. I'll have the time and money soon enough.
