BTW- his residency procedure book that had 3 years worth of sign-offs was in the pocket of that lab coat. He was more concerned about losing that than his car. As you all start your residencies, guard that little book with your life!

Congrats and good luck to you all. It is a long road, but an honorable one.
Now most programs use computerized records rather than procedure books. My husband had to transfer 3 years worth onto the computer when he was graduating.

Congratulations to all the graduating doctors! Welcome to the hell on earth that is residency!
