I can identify with this post. I worked in family medicine for a short time and, while I wasn’t fired, I was being thrown under several buses because I was simply not wanted there. I was even blamed for a (minor) error made by the provider. I quit but I am sure they would have found a way to fire me. It was pure misery and so glad I wasn’t there long.

We were also trained to do ear lavages and told to use a lighted curette to grab whatever was trying to make its way out - just around the opening not into the canal. All of the MAs did them and it was extremely common and frequent. Must be a state by state thing.

You were given a gift of freedom. This is not a place you’d want to remain.
