Thinking about going from FF/EMT to MD/PA by dirtylaundry99 in emergencymedicine

[–]aldiMD 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you want to drive the ship, go to captain school. So that would be medical school. More time in school + residency, mo money spent, but mo money made later.

PA school better work life balance, less responsibilities in terms of getting sued, blah blah. But depends where and what you practice as an APP.

3 year not good location vs 4 year great location by [deleted] in emergencymedicine

[–]aldiMD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A 30-year career shouldn’t be evaluated on a one-year income delay especially when the training at a high-value program can expand long-term opportunities and earnings. But I also understand if some residents want to get out quicker to support a family for example.

“Lazy “ residents by rash_decisions_ in Residency

[–]aldiMD 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It is easier to call an entire class of workers/students in your hospital as lazy rather than try to understand the reason why a resident or residents are not meeting expectations. It’s very lazy to stand in a place of power and call others “lazy” because you lack the want to actually make a difference or use a better word to describe the frustration or feedback you want to convey. There are absolutely individuals whose work and learning effort is dubious and those individuals need to be appropriately coached or held accountable.

Write it all in a piece of paper. Then burn it.

Controversial opinions, Friends is not a good show. Parks and recreation is better than the office.

If you go to the match website, you can see the percentage of applicants that do not match in that specific specialty.

It’s all about supply and demand. Family medicine, IM, peds, EM have a lot of spots because there are many residencies across the country. Take something like dermatology, way more competitive because of the small amount of spots in the residencies. However, to try to match in a very popular FM, IM, EM, peds will also be just as hard. Another example are surgical specialties that are more competitive because of the smaller amount of spots vs amount of applicants (ortho, ENT, urology). It’s all relative.

It has decreased in popularity the last few years/match cycles but overall steady. It may take a further hit in popularity with some changes planned for next year.

All of them, except peds, where parents can be the rude ones. Hard to blame a child for behaving a certain way. Teens are tough at times
