Medicine

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again, and today is the followup to the post “Prelude to Next Week” and we’re going to talk about “What if?” What if? So the post I wrote was to think about a series of questions: What would you do if you didn’t go to medical school? The opportunity cost of 4 years of medical school and 3+ years of training (6 for me). What would you have done with […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today we’re going to talk about the importance of “Staying Lean”. Staying Lean? Yea. I don’t mean lean in terms of body habitus — although that is of course important too. Today I’m talking about staying lean in terms of possessions. Possessions? Yea. I’ve talked about it before, but the path of medicine usually is not a straight line. There are many places where you potentially will make some […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today is going to be a kind of a stream of consciousness type post about “Rearview Mirror – Doctor Edition”. Rearview Mirror? Yea, I’ve done post like this one for my house before. It’s basically just my way of saying “retrospective analysis”. I’ve talked about Medicine before and whether or not I would do it again. I actually talked about it a second time as well. I would recommend […]

You’re a pre-med and want […]

Medicine Mondays Roadmap Update 7-29-2019

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today is just going to be some talk about “Time Off”. Time Off? Yea. I’ve talked about it before, but my work schedule is kind of weird in that I work 8 days and then I’m off 6 days. You would think that with having 6 days off every 2 weeks that I wouldn’t have any real need for a vacation. However, I think people tend to misinterpret just […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today we’re going to talk about somewhat of a somber topic — coming to terms with “Mortality”. Mortality? Yes. Quite simply, as humans we are not immortal, meaning we don’t live forever. As a child this is not something you think about, at all. This is evidenced by some of the crazy decisions kids make (mine included) in which they put themselves in harm’s way. However, as we get […]
