Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. This is just kind of a “musings” type of post where I talk about Work Life Balance. Work Life Balance? Yea. I see this string of words everywhere lately, especially in reference to physicians. This is very difficult, and there is likely some interplay between this and the already complex, multifactorial Physician Burnout topic. However, that interplay is outside the scope of this blog post, and would likely require a series […]

You’re a pre-med and want to […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. This will be a short story with the simple reminder to “Be Excellent to Each Other“. Be Excellent to Each Other? This last few days of my shift have been pretty rough. We had some people get sick and there were some shifts in the schedule.

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays. Today I was going to do a short post one “Types of Physician Burnout“. Types of Burnout? Yea. I think we’ve all heard about “Physician Burnout”. However, it seems to always be lumped into this one “catch-all” category.

Hey everyone it’s Medicine Mondays again. And… I just realized it’s July… Everyone knows what that means, right? What does it mean? It means it’s time for the new interns to start! However, it’s already July 2nd so that means the first day is already over.. and the first day is the hardest. For some it may be harder than others, for example if you started on the ICU or night float or trauma or […]

For all the new interns starting in July… how long do you plan to practice? Your Medical Career? Yea. I’ve touched upon this subject a few times since I’ve been writing my blog. Of course, my experience may not be the same as everyone else’s. However, I think that when people decide to become […]
