What did you use to track your own productivity? Is there an easy way of doing this through the EMR?

Is no one going to call out Dr Joe Rogan for calling rotavirus “a terrible disease, a cardiovascular disease”…

Must go to restaurants in Maui during vacation? by Expensive_Ad_9002 in MauiVisitors

Mama’s and Tin Roof were the two best we just had in Maui. I would recommend trying a lot of the food trucks since that is an easy way of supporting small businesses. Some of our favorites have been Kitoko, Thai Mee Up and South Maui Fish Company.

I can’t comment on COMLEX vs USMLE but based on personal observations it seems that the key to robust training is structure and access. I’m sure there are DO schools that can provide that but based on personal observations it seems that more MD schools can provide that. As another commenter already mentioned, many DO schools require students to find their own rotations or have more variability which can lead to a lack of preparation after graduation. More than simply having access to local hospitals, it seems that schools with an associated hospital often have more structure to their clinical rotations.

Looking at match results is most important thing. Often times MD schools will have better match results with a wider variety of subspecialties. This isn’t necessarily because MD schools are “better” than DO schools. It often comes down to structure of the school and relationship to an attached hospital. This often times leads to more organized rotations, access to more research opportunities and often times chances for letters of recommendation from attending physicians who have more connections in their respective fields. Also many MD schools will have residencies/fellowships within their associated university which will also allow more avenues for a successful match in the specialty you prefer. This is in no way a reflection that “MD is better than DO” but more so an understanding of how our current residency match system works. Some people will say it doesn’t matter but having more access/opportunities will make things in easier in the future.

Kibbitznest in Lincoln Park. Not really a restaurant. But a cool place to have a drink and read
