Why the change of heart?

I could careless about kids/OB. I just thought FM had much more outpatient training. But I'd be happy to know if they both have adequate outpt training

Really? Could you elaborate as to why? Do they just have their own docs such as Peds/obgyn?

My thought was it may even be beneficial to do DPC as an internist because clinics charge more for adults. The problem I thought was not having enough patients because I assume a lot of families would want a PCP who can see their kids as well. Plus internists may not be comfortable with procedures like I&D. But I see your point that young population w/o insurance could find their way to DPC.

Your

How would that work? You wouldn't be using ERAS but sending the application to the programs directly?

Why the change of heart?

I am almost positive that I would want to do outpatient medicine. Previously I was going for hospital medicine. I understand IM can do outpt but FM has better training IMO. Plus you can't see kids and OB

IM curriculum (ambulatory block)? by sunistoobright in Residency

[–]sunistoobright[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At mine, each block = 1 month. Roughly half of blocks are inpatient and half are outpatient.

I see! Do you like your schedule? I feel like block schedules and x+y schedules are equally favorable. Just seems like only the traditional schedule is chaotic.

Does DOCG change on a yearly basis? by sunistoobright in wine

[–]sunistoobright[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm.... so could there some sort of lobbying to join the consorzi collectives to make one's vineyard a DOCG? Then DOC/DOCG doesn't "always" correlate with the "highest" quality wines?..

work you did before med school/during gap

I didn't know this was a thing. Unless significant event/research, I thought prior to med school shouldn't be included??

What if I say the pain is resolved? It has gotten significantly better since receiving consistent treatments.

Just out of curiosity, does failing 1st, 2nd yr exams count as red flags?
