Medicine


Hey everyone, I’ve talked about it before, but make sure you take care of your eyes. Today is just a “Quick Eye Update” from me. So I’ve transitioned back to biweekly contacts from dailies. I am ok with admitting that, for me, going to daily contacts was a mistake. I’m not quite sure what the reason is, but daily contacts simply don’t agree with me. Maybe it’s the material or something, but my eyes don’t […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today we’re going to talk about “Is the Grass really Greener?” in regards to changing jobs. Is the Grass really Greener? I’ve talked about jobs a lot. Like how to choose your first job, and changing jobs, and looking for another job. I’ve also talked about the continuous search for The Ideal Job and even the Temporary First Job. However, today’s article is because a friend of a friend […]

Checklist
Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. It’s about that time again… the Match has come and gone. Let’s talk about “Preparing for Residency”. Preparing for Residency To be perfectly honest, this is kind of a lazy post on my part since it is kind of rehash of multiple prior posts. However, the Match happens every year and every year there are new 4th years medical students who will be starting their residency. For that reason, […]

Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays —- but on Tuesday! Today is kind of a follow-up post to Take Care of Your Eyes and Part Two. We’re going to talk about Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis. Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis? Yea. I think I may have mentioned it in passing in my prior few posts, but I wanted to devote a whole post to this topic. Most likely my wife and I both have some form of this disease. […]

Eyes Part 3 – Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis #illumedati



Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today is a followup post to my previous post Take Care of Your Eyes. It’s aptly named “Take Care of Your Eyes Part Two.” So… what happened? Nothing too crazy, it’s just a follow-up post to the previous one. In that post I discussed going to daily contact lenses, which, although more expensive, I felt would be better in terms of hygiene (and comfort) for my eyes. For reference, […]

Take Care of Your Eyes Part Two #illumedati


Hey everyone, it’s Medicine Mondays again. Today’s topic is only circumferentially related to Medicine. Today we’re going to talk about “What is BetterBack?” BetterBack? Yea. As you all know by now, I’m a radiologist. And not only that, I’m a teleradiologist. The majority of my 10 hour shifts are spent sitting down. Yes, we do have standing desks, but my concern is sometimes the desks break down and you’re left with it stuck in one […]
