Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again… and this is kind of a followup to my previous post, Choosing Your First Job. This post will go into a little more depth about The First Job, more specifically, about choosing a first job with a “temporary” mindset.

The (Temporary) First Job #illumedati


Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays and I don’t really have a topic for today. So today will be a short post about how you need to give yourself a break.

But it’s now the end of April, so instead of Post-Match, it’s […]

Pre-Residency Evaluation #illumedati



Hey everyone… it’s Medicine Mondays. I hope everyone had a Happy Easter weekend. It’s kind of ironic, that I’m posting late about “Why Does Medicine Move So Slowly?” I was supposed to post more about The House Buying Itch, but I wasn’t able to talk to my colleagues about their experiences with buying houses as residents.

Hey guys, it’s Medicine Mondays.. and while buying a house may seem like a Whatever Wednesdays post, I think this particular post fit Medicine Mondays better since it pertains to this critical post match period. So let’s talk about The House Buying Itch – Post Match Edition.
