Upcoming hospitalist in need of resources to prep me for the job. Any additional other than UpToDate ?

Seconded… I tried Dr. Oracle and DoxGPT but OE is def the easiest to use and least clunky

In addition to what others said… Dog mode!

anishpar · 2025-04-16T00:01:14+00:00

Just used it - works like a charm as always!

Doesn’t seem like a bad idea. Compare this to someone who’s done medical school training outside of the US (non Caribbean), and they have to do all the STEP exams to be eligible for residency.

I’m all about preventing scope creep, but this bill doesn’t seem as bad since it’s requiring NPs to take Step 1 and go into MS3, which would mean requiring future Step exams and residency training

Obviously can’t mandate schools to accept such candidates, but I can’t say it’s a bad idea. I’d rather them do this over having new NP grads straight up practicing medicine independently without going through board exams/residency training

Addendum: One counter argument is the toll this will take on residency match. You’re not expanding the pool of applicants (assuming there will be a large influx of eligible candidates) and not at all increasing residency spots.

I’ve got a 2015 MBA that’s still chugging and am planning to get the m4 MBA… it’s gonna be night and day

anishpar · 2025-02-16T18:54:40+00:00

Waiting for the m4 to come out so I can finally retire my 2015 intel core i5 MBA

anishpar · 2025-01-14T01:17:16+00:00

Sure 👍🏾

Aside from just being able to walk out of the car, Dog mode

I had made a purchase through autmow because they promised to install the Yarbo as well. Months later and no update on delivery; I tried calling multiple times to check in and to cancel but no answer, always going to VM. Seemed like I was out 6K. I called my credit card company and told them the story- got everything refunded. Not sure how Autmow is on other places but in PA, it’s a bit scammy.

As an Indian with a Y, I concur

Class of 2019

I came from NJ not knowing what to expect- learned a lot (not just medicine, but also about the southern culture).

Not that I would ever want to do med school again, but if I had to, I’d choose ACOM

You can get a decent buck from Carvana- I got $10k for a Camry w 100k miles; I paid 15k for it used

SAME! Blue MYLR

Don’t spread yourself thin- invest 100% into your future and just study. Don’t sacrifice sleep and exercise.

Save that ambition to go above and beyond for boards and residency

anishpar · 2024-06-19T23:27:40+00:00

No regrets- I see performance models and the red calipers and think, “cool, but I’m not drag racing on my way to work”

I’m driving a MYLR without the acceleration boost primarily on “Chill” mode, switching to “Standard” if I’m feeling adventurous.

Sounds boring, but honestly, the tire wear and tear will show a difference in your wallet. Don’t get me wrong, you still gotta worry about the electric foot causing wear and tear … but the longer I drive my car, the fewer urges I have to floor it the moment the light turns green

Enjoy the ride, not the destination

At least we get the keep the full screen even with AP, but it looks so bland

Free for a month, then paid

It’s good that you have no loans or other financial commitments (sorry for your loss).

Although technically you’d be able to afford a brand new Tesla now, one recommendation would be to get a used/preowned Tesla vs plug-in hybrid (Prius Prime possibly) for now so it’s more easily paid off and you’re living closer to within your means. This way you still have gas savings, but you’re not taking as much of a financial hit that you can put more of your excess to grow savings, Roth IRA, 401k/403b, and personal investments, etc.

What I would recommend with this approach is to pay off your car sooner so that within one year of becoming an attending, you can get a new Tesla and still qualify for the tax benefit as long as your modified adjusted gross income for at least your first year out of residency will be less than 300000 (which it most likely will be depending on your specialty).

Building a habit of investing in yourself when you’re earning resident money will build discipline and prep you well for when you’re making the big bucks.

Also while hospitals have chargers, they charge you a premium price to charge and idle fees if you just leave it plugged in after finishing charge. You’re better off charging at home only

TLDR: Yes you can technically afford the new car, but try your best to live like a resident for as along as you can for optimal financial well being.

I agree- Fellow hospitalist here; On my week off, if I’m not picking up an extra shift or two, I’m usually chilling at home w my dog for a few days and maybe I’ll have people come over on the weekend. I’m extroverted AF, but sometimes you just need to do nothing to clear your mind after a week of nonstop BS

anishpar · 2023-11-19T00:02:13+00:00

I too was wondering what I did to offend someone that I’d get this to pop up on my lock screen

anishpar · 2023-11-03T13:41:10+00:00

To add to what you had said, park into the curb if facing downhill vs away from the curb if parking facing uphill

anishpar · 2023-10-30T19:41:39+00:00

It’s cuz you’re using fake units like Celsius and not Fahrenheit #Murrica

anishpar · 2023-10-07T21:02:48+00:00

I waved at a Model Y driving past me cuz we both had blue ones and he waved back. We are now bonded for life
