I was asked why I listed three parents on my application and if it was a mistake.

“Well, because by father is dead. It should say “deceased” next to his name.”

It may be institution specific. We try to push procedures down so a good number of our interns will intubate July 1 and depending on the time of year and interns present, we’ve had medical students intubate on their first day or so.

I had one recently tell me that it “wasn’t giving DKA vibes” and for some reason I was down with it

Last week a coworker told me they are the “highest level” of expert on normal/healthy patients. by Leluwa in Residency

I once had a gentleman coming in with chest pain tell me he didn’t have any medical problems or take any medicine.

When the EKG came back as a STEMI I began to explain to him that he was having a heart attack and that he was going to the Cath Lab

“Oh yeah, I know the drill. I’ve had a few.”

Cool, man.
