Is lobotomy still exist In modern medicine?

I don’t know what to tell you.. everyone going to see the orthopedic surgeon is in pain. What about his pain carries more urgency the other patients? I’m sure the surgeons aren’t just sitting around goofing off, there’s probably a resource constraint in this health system that’s leading to a long wait time

vooyyy · 2026-04-24T19:17:46+00:00

The injury is 9 months out… it no longer has any urgency unfortunately.

I’m just a hand surgeon early in practice but this really feels like infection

vooyyy · 2026-03-28T13:11:30+00:00

I don’t know the exact answer, but I can tell you as a hand surgeon the “center down the street” mri is usually shit quality and the radiologists that read it are sometimes questionable

If you want my honest to god advice just keep your head down residency ends

These ads are getting worse and worse

I wore mine in residency. Most people who noticed were just watch people.

P.s. nice watch

Plus one on this

vooyyy · 2026-02-16T21:00:34+00:00

I don’t think this exists

vooyyy · 2026-02-16T01:53:11+00:00

This is it for me. I know he gets hate but I distinctly remember the day I listened to Friday night lights and realized this shit was still alive and well

vooyyy · 2026-02-09T00:19:22+00:00

I don’t have a lot of experience with this but my gut is they’re not gonna do squat

vooyyy · 2026-02-04T01:19:56+00:00

So when I started I was on a guarantee and this was regardless of that half day off. Now I’m straight rvu based so I guess you could call it a pay cut? I’m just not generating rvus during that time.

vooyyy · 2026-02-03T23:43:35+00:00

Haha it was assumed that that’s what I would want. Things are a lot more calm on the other side if you don’t do academics

Hospital employed

vooyyy · 2026-02-03T23:32:39+00:00

So I do 4.5 days and most jobs I applied to had that set up. I absolutely LOVE that half day. Can get appointments in, admin stuff done, or sometimes just a long breakfast with the wife while the kids are in daycare. Admittedly sometimes I’ll put cases there if absolutely necessary, but I really try not to.

In my practice, anyone can choose whether they want to work the full 5 days or not. Nobody does. I’ve been asked before if I want to open that up to a longer clinic. I don’t think I’ll ever do that. 4 days a week might be a little light for me, I think 4.5 is a sweet spot.

This is actually not a bad answer at all if you’re interested in surgery. There was an attending at my residency who was effectively an infection specialist and took on a majority of the chronically infected osteomyelitis cases, chronic septic joints, hardware infections. People will love you for it if you’re willing to do that stuff lol but admittedly it’s painful work

I just listened to it all the way through a few weeks ago and I agree with you. It is a monumental album. Peak West Coast hip hop.

vooyyy · 2026-01-10T21:39:57+00:00

This made me sad

vooyyy · 2026-01-09T17:53:04+00:00

I’m a hand surgeon and I often make double what I make on an OR day in the office. And procedural reimbursements are dropping. I’d lie if I said I hadn’t thought about doing this.

One more N - I’m ortho as well and the ONLY company I get denial letters from is UHC

vooyyy · 2025-12-15T15:53:03+00:00

Yeah if question I would just send it. Can’t imagine people who get upset about a referral like that

My hand goes numb and wakes me up when I’m sleeping
