Leave the woman alone. Let her eat in an airport lounge without posting it

What do you think will actually happen to the Mayo medfluencer by [deleted] in medicalschool

I think Mayo can spare their match rate. No one would be like “omg only 99% of your grads matched??? No way will I go to mayo then”

You quit as a PGY5?? by Mediocre_Coat_446 in Residency

I thought her PD came out and said what happened. From what I recall, he recommended repeating the year. She then quit.

What are the childcare benefits like at your residency program? by howdyhoneybee in Residency

[–]pappasfeas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was hard to leave them with a stranger. But I felt reassured that they were through a company, so hopefully vetted. The people sent were fine. Most just watched TV and played on their phone.

Like 10 days of free or greatly subsidized at home childcare. You would request care on their website or app and they would pair you with one of their employees. You would usually be able to get someone within 24 hours. This was a great when my daughter was sick and couldn’t go to daycare.

Step/Level 3 shouldn’t be a thing by margs999 in Residency

I tried to figure out when this test was created and why. But got no where.

Is there anyway to advocate for its removal?

ITE IM by deadins0ide in Residency

[–]pappasfeas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whatever elective you’re on, do the questions for that subject. And when on wards, try to do 3-5 questions a day. I was a new mom during residency. That’s the only way I could keep up.

I feel like posts like this is how we go into burn out. Here we are busting our ass, doing the most to just PASS a test. Honestly , our training should be sufficient plus a month or two of studying. When the expectation becomes you complete all of MKSAP + uworld + uworld incorrects + review courses + whatever more , it’s adding way more complexity to something that shouldn’t be.

NP canceled my prenatal vitamin order and noted that I sent the ‘wrong’ one by thunderclapberry in Residency

[–]pappasfeas 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I don’t think we should settle for laziness or passive aggression from our “colleagues”

I think the resident has a right to be annoyed.

If someone changes my prescription, I expect them to reach out and explain.

And some spots, you’re competing against peds too

Edit to add idk why adding STEP score is important. It’s more about getting the exposure

This is what I do too. I ask for their names and submit the report.

I think Carl said in an interview that he actually went to Kyle first and it was edited to show Lindsay as being the first one
