I keep seeing this statement everywhere. Reddit, forums, YouTube videos, websites. People even claiming that is why they got interested in the specialty. I don’t get it? Is understanding lung physiology and anesthestic drugs really enough to justify this reputation. During my anesthesia rotation I don’t remember seeing it involving any deep understanding of renal, neuro, endo, gi/hepat phys. Even cardiac phys isnt THAT heavily required. Unless they specialize in cardiac anesthesia. And for pharm there is a giant ocean of drugs that anesthesia will never use or learn much about. I guess they do know the ones used in the OR fairly extensively. But in overall pharmacology and physiology knowled

Whats the deal with this USCE? Seems like its a hands on experience for graduates. Im currently a usimg with 2 months of internship left. Was wondering if i could get away with putting in preferred dates after my graduation.

Im currently in my last year of medical school. Im a USIMG and was wondering if i could land any electives. I only have 4 months left. Uni electives are really expensive and hard to get. I was wondering if agency electives are worth it or should i just settle for observerships after i go to the US post graduation.

Here’s some things i wish patients would be more aware of when they come to the doctor.

  1. Bring old opd tickets and reports. Esp things like ct/mri, ultrasounds, biopsies, endoscopies, spirometry, special blood investigations. Otherwise we have to start evaluating from scratch if you dont bring any old papers.

  2. For CT scans/MRIs bring the film as well as the report. A lot of consultants want to see the scan themselves. This is more important than you would expect

  3. For women, know about your menstrual cycle. At least the exact date of your last period.

  4. Its not possible to address multiple disconnected issues in one visit. So when talking always lead with what your primary concern

Are you guys eating chicken daily? As someone whose main protein source is chicken and eggs this virus is lowkey concerning. Not sure how to move forward with my diet.

The person who asks for more money than they spent on sth they bought. The person who plagiarized someone else's work. Instead of calling them out they're strangely praised. These traits are valued. It seems like the less integrity and morals you have as a person the more "clever" you are in the eyes of the general public. An honest person who prioritizes doing the right thing over benefiting themselves is often viewed as sojho/gullible. These people aren't appreciated but taken advantage of and mocked for not being smart.
