Doctor Rach

Consulting team: “I think the patient is depressed” Me: “ok, does the patient say he feels depressed?” CT: “…no” Me: “…did you ask them?” CT: “…I did not”

@Girl81Runner Thank you 🥰🥰🥰

@futureMDrach Congratulations to you!!

Hi I haven’t gotten on here in almost a year, but for the OGs who remember me getting on here after a rough breakup, facing the terrifying prospects on dating apps, and then stumbling across a great guy irl and going on a date with him…anyway we’re getting married next year

@purplemedbook Thanks friend🥰🥰 how are you?

@mdmd2024 Thank you!!

@futureMDrach Congrats!

@rachel_me01 🥰🥰🥰

@futureMDrach OMG!!!!!!!!!!

All rounds are discovery rounds when you don’t know what you’re doing

Y’all, being an intern has its own issues, but being a resident is still so much better than being a med student. Just now seeing how much of my med school experience was low key toxic

Changing my Twitter name from “future doctor Rach” to “Doctor Rach” 🥹🥹🥹

Gm everyone, had a dream that I was in the hospital and all the mean attendings I’ve worked with were there and refused to treat me but no med school is not traumatizing why do you ask

@rachel_me01 Going from waste length to a bob? And/or dying it a fun color?

@futureMDrach How drastic are we talking? Full chop? Going black?

Trying not to make drastic decisions for my hair while I’m breaking up with what I imagined for my career

@pathologiste08 I hate everything

I’m not even upset bc of the program- I liked them and I think I can be happy there. I feel like garbage tho that nowhere higher on the list wanted me, even tho they sent love letters etc

Told myself I’d be happy in a day or two but that has turned out to be a lie

@itDObelikethaat I’m sorry😔 it’s rough

@futureMDrach I don’t have an encouraging story but i also dropped super far down my list so just here to say you aren’t alone in your disappointment 😕

Thrilled for my friends who got their #1, but without going into too much detail I matched my backup specialty at my #13 rank and it’s kinda rough. Would be great to hear encouraging stories from others who didn’t get what they expected initially😔

@ellenfarley624 Love that story, thank you so much :)

@futureMDrach (3)…in those days there were many 2nd year spots to apply for. I completed my FP residency in a different, very good program. It all worked out, though those were stressful choices at the time. Please don’t feel like crap!! Life takes twists and turns, often with silver linings!

A clarification: I’m not trying to say I’m too good for this program or wanted somewhere more prestigious. It’s not close to my family and partner, and doesn’t have as many job opportunities for my partner, which are the main reasons it was lower on the list

@ScarecrowMD @Lindalistens_ It’s a solid program, I ranked lower not because of prestige but more because of location, job opportunities for my partner, other factors

@futureMDrach @Lindalistens_ Every residency has more to teach than you will be able to learn. You may not leave with the same high-value network from a more prestigious program, but if you put in the work you will be just as good a doctor.

@blikethecheese @KeriCrewsonMD That’s a good point. I do think I’ll end up being happy but it wasn’t the news I expected today
