Sooooo....update from the other med students?
SoEnchanting, hope your score for that IM shelf worked out okay. I did really well (for me anyways).
I really disliked psych. I don't like switching medications around just to switch medications around. The actual therapy work though is interesting, too bad the MD's just hand it off to the PhD's. Child and Adolescent psych was good too, in part because it seems like most of the kids actually did get better.
Currently on OB/GYN, just finishing up my (incredibly slow) week of GYN ONC. Our department really puts an effort on teaching, the residents are great, and for the most part the patients have been wonderful too (which I find a little surprising being a male student). Really enjoying the mix of surgery, clinic, and procedures that the specialty offers. I can see why men would get into the field. I just wouldn't want to spend my days focused from knees to navels. Also, I want the moment when my fingers are in a vagina to be the high point of my day...
Have benign GYN Surgery next week and then I finish up with Labor and Delivery, so I end 3rd year with a sleep deprived fizzle. I'll be working at the busiest L&D service in the city (about 3500 births a year) that gets all the suburban couples coming in the door. Expected to be in at 5am every day for pre-rounds, and have a q3 call schedule...sweet.
Anyone else?
