Let’s go! I even got to spend time with my favorite future vascular surgeon, who was an intern when I was a 4th year med student @DoctorCurlyyy 😍♥️🩸 #AMP2025#CLTIFighters
Putting a 10cm needle through a rib to biopsy a lung mass next to the aorta, takes about 30-60min and pays us ~$90. Tell me again how physicians are overpaid?
I paid a locksmith $155 to change my front door lock. It took 5min.
Because they spent over a decade to learn.
Because they made $12/hour for years (as physicians).
Because they put their training ahead of many valuable life goals.
Because they’re on call throughout their working years.
Because they advocate for us.
Because they save lives.
My attending told me to play my favorite spanish music in the OR yesterday because he knew I was Dominican. It’s the little things ❤️ #MedTwitter#residency
Had an opportunity to partner with @BehindTheKnife to record a podcast on LCBDE (out today!) with supplemental video tutorial series that can be found here: https://t.co/eazdovSiD2

Gun shot injuries are so rare in Canada that their surgeons don’t know how to manage them. Can you even imagine? I can’t.
Every trauma surgeon in America, whether they served or not, is battlefield trained. Unfortunately those battlefields are our schools and our streets.
Residency truly is the worst… NOT because of the patients (truly the patients are the only thing that kept me going) but because of everything else we deal with at work. I truly don’t know how I’m going to survive another 3 years of this shit.

Boomer: But why can't the slackers pay for college & pay off their loans like we did?
