Ben Brik, DO

@DoctorAlpaca looking forward to talking esports sometime! congrats and welcome

Leaving a well established position in Esports was one of the most difficult decisions I’ve ever made. Today I’m grateful to announce that I have matched with my #1 program!! 🙏🏼

@jtrebach Been having a lot of issues in our hospital system with people withdrawing on this. Have a new orderset that the pharmacy team has spearheaded and clonidine worked great in my experience!! Just hard to get it down with the extreme nausea as only PO and patch on our formulary

Hi, medical toxicologist/ER doctor here 👋 here’s what you need to know about medetomidine in the illicit opioid supply

Happy to share a great case I had earlier this year! Learned so much this intern year and ready for more :) hematology.org/education/trai…

Of course my first flight as a doctor they asked for a medical professional 🙃 all ended well! AirRX app was good prep beforehand

Excited to stay home in NJ and serve the community I grew up in! #match2024

@iamahmednahian Thank you man, been a long road

Absolutely cannot wait to find out where on Friday #match2024

Got a front row seat and this was awesome! Love the freedom 4th year allows

Epic has been such an upgrade from using Cerner. Even the login screen backgrounds bring me a bit of joy every day

@thecoconutmob I believe in Giuoco Piano supremacy

if you're into Bc4 pivot to the ruy lopez and push that guy forward

@Hdpeterson19 At MercyOne on the IM track! Its been an amazing time and privileged to have it for sure

@BrikBash Are you central IA or at a yearlong?

To all the third years out on their clinical rotations right now, how accurate are OSCEs?

Im glad my family is always out there to keep me humble

@MedicalMewtwo Theres a certain new tactic I heard you can try out the whole chess world is talking about 👀

So, my med school is doing the Olympics rn. M1s vs M2s. Chess is an event, so I figured id throw my name in. I play chess, Im not good, but I could probably beat someone who doesn’t *play* ya know? Tell me why theres a second year med student with a >2000 elo and GM dad 😭

@v_shiv24 Ngl my primary focus right now is planning my food and sleep situation🙃

Going from doing lectures on my own time as 2nd year to starting rotations doing 2 weeks of inpatient IM 8pm-8am (yes, nights) is going to be like getting thrown into the deep end of the pool isn’t it

@v_shiv24 Anking overwhelms me so I just started trying out Cheesy Dorian (which is still a part of the anking deck) and its a lot more manageable

@v_shiv24 Yeah expected it next week tbh haha, that email warning that its coming out today got me anxious

Passed Step 1!! The relief is unreal.

Excited to finally read for pleasure again instead of out of requirement!Had these on my list for a while
