Still celebrating #FellowshipMatch! I still cannot believe I am going to be a pediatric emergency medicine trained physician! 🤩 So excited to be moving to Baltimore! Taking recs and tips for all things DMV! @HopkinsMedicine

Asking for one saturday off to attend my brother’s wedding, only to end up being scheduled to work on that day might just be my breaking point tbh 🙃

#PedsMatch25 applicant update: some programs will be delayed beyond the plan to extend interview invites on 10/10, especially programs affected by the south eastern storms. @APPDconnect

Good luck to everyone applying for fellowship this cycle! Going through residency and deciding to pursue more training is no small decision, and means that we’re passionate about the fields we’re going into! May all our efforts be compensated this #Match season. #PEMMatch2025

I’m about to lose my mind. RESIDENCY IS TAXING. RESIDENCY IS BRUTAL. Medicine needs systemic change because the hours, the expectations, the workload are all taxing. This tweet ⬇️ is so disgusting

@bridget__marc Wasn’t the person in question an ophthalmology resident? Historically that would not be considered an overly taxing residency in comparison to other specialities. Perhaps this was more of a personal mental health issue than an environmental one.

“You’re the only resident who wears scrubs” is literally wild 😂😂😂 Like ma’am, please stop talking to me.

A nurse referred to me as the tech (twice) after I introduced myself as the resident. She later “apologized” stating that normally doctors are dressed nicely, which is why she didn’t recognize me (I’m in blue figs scrubs and a patagonia) aka what every resident wears 🙃

The statement from dermatologist regarding DEI is highlighting what many in medicine already know because we went to medical school & residency with these people. They never beat the racism allegations, they’re usually smart enough to mask it but it always rears its ugly head.

While other colleagues have already posted, I felt compelled to amplify the anti-DEI movement happening in the main dermatology professional society @AADskin! A group of members have put forth a resolution to sunset all DEI programs. **Only 3% of dermatologists are Black.

Wellness lecture from this morning. Lecturer: what do you like to do for fun? Resident: hiking L: ok, how can you get that same feel when you don’t have the time? R: I guess a treadmill? L: smaller scale. How about a lap around the office? 😅😅 Medicine is pure comedy.
