@TheSlowRidePod Anywhere to get coverage of the TTs today in knox (even if just audio)? Flo isn't covering. Women start in less than 2hrs.

When planning block schedules for next year it should be automatic to ask if anyone observes #Ramadan . Ask if they would like to have their night float month or lighter rotation scheduled for April '22. They shouldn't have to chose btwn faith and work.

A well-written case with clear images by Dr. Hunt (@djchunt), Dr. McLendon (@emdocmac) and Dr. Wiggins, showing the importance of recognizing and diagnosing pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade. https://t.co/M7OIleIa7W

@EFprocycling @rapha Looks like I'll be getting another EF kit this year. #longlivetheducks @rapha

@Rick_Pescatore It's been a growing problem (no pun intended) for years. Had a friend do some research on the number in Ohio 4 years ago. Commercial edibles are indistinguishable from candy.

Good on you and let it stay there. Trust your medical schools to eval the students.

Woah @ACOEPRSO finally Level 2 PE suspended for DOs as well as MDs! @NBOME #MedStudentTwitter

@gardein It was funnier than anything. Still tasty.

[K. McLendon, DO, EMT-P @EMDocMac]

@gardein not sure if you have a new partner with guerilla glue but the easy open tab for the sauce in the tasty pad thai skillet was anything but. Even tried 2 pliers to see if it was possible to pull apart.

BTW: It's not

Scalpel not included
Not trying to get saucey though 😁

@QhubekaAssos @TheSlowRidePod Strong showing

@EM_Pharm @KruggelSpencer Works great. I use it regularly but cation to the applicator. A little goes a long way at first. I had an eager nurse lather a pt... it went exactly like you'd expect.

If the broke medical students of America could organize and just not participate in their 'study' they could never 'validate' and revive Frankenstein's monster. Just saying.

Come on, NBME!

Your beloved USMLE Step 2 CS has scarcely been in the ground for two weeks - and you’re already out here flirting with “exciting new methodology” and “immersive virtual reality scenarios”?

[Dr. Tyler King @DrTylerKing]

Well would you like at that?! Looks like advocacy works! When enough people speak out, the people can hold those in power accountable. Great work everyone! #CancelLevel2PE @jbcarmody @drharrislakers @NationalSOMA

[K. McLendon, DO, EMT-P @EMDocMac]

@bdmmd @davidjhwu I had 4 weeks total in 3rd and 4th yr and had to spend most of it switching to and from away rotations schedules. No time for interviews. That's what days off were for. Not that I agreed with the scheduling or its lack of practicality

[Mack @MistytheRatKwen]

Hey @NBOME I just want to be clear. Your decision to continue to push the PE exam is causing many D.O. Students to consider full licensure with step instead. If you want this organization to stay alive, cut your losses at this time

[K. McLendon, DO, EMT-P @EMDocMac]

This guy is saying what we've all been saying for over a decade.

[Dr. Tyler King @DrTylerKing]

As the sitting National President of the Student Osteopathic Medical Association (@NationalSOMA), I failed the “Humanistic Domain” of the COMLEX Level 2 PE. This domain claims to measure “Communication, Interpersonal Skills, and Professionalism” - because of this failure...

[K. McLendon, DO, EMT-P @EMDocMac]

About time! @AOAforDOs @advocates4dos are you taking notes?

[Londyn Robinson, MD @londyloo]

USMLE STEP 2 CS IS CANCELLED FOREVER!!!!!
