Friendly Neighborhood Doctor

DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE. I GET TO BE A PEDIATRICIAN 😭😭🥰😍🥳🎉 #PedsMatch21

Tell me why the best feeling in the world is handing over the phone and pager at the end of a shift 🤤

To the new interns: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not take it to heart or think it reflects badly on you if you are overwhelmed or struggling. It is overwhelming, difficult and scary. But you will learn and become more efficient. It just takes time. Please give yourself some grace 💕

@allsyan Good luck y’all 💕💕 and thank you for posting this!! Seeing all the comments have been truly inspiring for me as well! I’m about to be a PGY2 and my fiancé moved 10 hours away to start his residency 🥺😭 helps to know we aren’t alone

If anyone feels comfortable sharing their medicine long distance success stories, and/or just sending their well wishes to my partner before he starts residency, that would mean a lot 🙏 thank you #medtwitter 2/2

Yesterday my partner moved away to prepare for starting residency in a new city. I’m so proud of him to start the next phase of his training, but also heartbroken that we will be apart for the next 4 years. It’s so sad that medicine can tear people apart like this… 1/2

Called a mom to update her on her baby and as soon as I said my name she said, “Girl do you ever have a day off?” 😂😂😂

✨Material gworl 💅🏻✨

Sitting here trying to make my car last until I can afford to get a new one after residency wishing that a celebrity would just donate me one 😂😂😂

Today my heart hurts so much. While I am grateful my fiancé matched into his speciality of choice, I am broken that he matched somewhere 10 hours from me 😭😢

Swear if I was my own patient, I would constantly comment on how poor my p.o. intake is every morning reviewing my chart 😂😂😂😂

Lost my first patient the other day and I am not okay. Absolutely nothing could have prepared me for that. My heart hurts

Had a parent refuse to sign a refusal form so that’s how my day is going 🙃🙃🙃

@DrPWave Omg I know 🤣🤣🤣 my friends were like any other service would tear them to shreds 🤣

Shout out to the med students that were being extremely disrespectful talking to each other at regular volume about scheduling boards while my co-resident and I were presenting on patients with our attending in the room during table rounds… any advice on how to break it to them?

The 10 year old in my neighborhood asked for my number. If you need me, I’ll be riding out this compliment for the rest of the week

Every time I hear from a patient “Where’s the REAL DOCTOR?” #medtwitter

@kimcoffmanmd The mom of my patient in the ED: so are we going to see a real doctor? 😩😩

In Austin, TX we have several COVID-19 patients on ECMO (complete heart & lung bypass), the last attempt at survival from COVID. The youngest is 19 yrs old The oldest is only 39. These were all preventable. This is not the same virus it used to be. Get the vaccine. 🙏🏼😔

I may not look old enough to be a doctor, but the bags under my eyes sure do 🤣

Getting to discharge your patient after they’ve been in the hospital for such a prolonged time and seeing them get better is so fulfilling
