Medicine Mondays

Watchful Waiting 1
Hey guys, it’s Medicine Mondays again. To be honest I wasn’t sure what I was going to write about today. However, I recalled in my prior posts about the importance of “doing nothing”.

Stock Photo from: Pixabay After clicking this link, you may be wondering what I mean by Med School Cost Analysis. There have been many, many other posts and articles about the opportunity cost of going to medical school, including the length of schooling and student loans. That’s not what this post […]

Be The Match
Hi everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays and I apologize that this post is late. I’ve been kind of running around California trying to meet up with old friends. However, today I want to talk about “Be The Match”. Stock Photo from: Pexels What is “Be The Match?” Well, “Be The Match” is a database run by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP). As you may or may not know, the mainstay for a potential curative treatment […]
