Fast friends at #STS2023,. Thanks #LTTF for giving me future friendly faces to look out for in a few years on the fellowship interview trail! @Foley_Kate__

In medicine, we don’t say “I love you”, we say “it’s not unreasonable” and I think that’s beautiful.

It’s my vacation week and I’m still thinking about how I asked a medical student last week to try to fix the printer because “you’re young” and he promptly informed me it was out of paper #MedTwitter #surgtwitter #tiredintern

@parme_Jeanne Completely agree…3 months into intern year everyone is hitting walls hard

Thoughts 2 months into intern year: hospital pharmacists are the real GOATs & you can’t convince me otherwise 🤷🏾‍♀️

@djkmam13 @ecorty yup 😅 or the drawstring doesn’t hold well so I’m scrubbed hoping my pants don’t just drop in the middle of a case

Reeeeetweet!!! 🙅🏼‍♀️ the separation anxiety is real #internchronicles #pgy1

[Jeanne Rabalais, MD, MHA @parme_Jeanne]

The worst part of intern year so far is seeing my co-interns almost everyday for a month and then going off service and not seeing anyone #MedTwitter

[Kate Foley, MD MPH @Foley_Kate__]

@ariananaaseh I am also LOVING having Med students. And they are actually so helpful esp on trauma call!

Me as the intern on #traumasurg in the corner of the trauma bay typing my silly little consult note in the middle of complete chaos

How did I know more as a 4th year than I do as an intern.

[Kate Foley, MD MPH @Foley_Kate__]

Any other #pgy1 interns feel like they’re so bogged down trying to make it through the logistics of the day you’re not really using your doctor brain? Out here feeling like a high stakes secretary some days #internchronicles #surgtwitter #medtwitter

[Kate Foley, MD MPH @Foley_Kate__]

Got hung up on by the cardiology fellow today while calling a consult. Hitting milestones every day 😂 🤷🏼‍♀️ #internchronicles #pgy1 #surgtwitter #medtwitter

@smalltownOMS I have been making my way through ER and I’m almost done with season 13 and I can honestly say I don’t know who I’ll be when it’s over

[Kate Foley, MD MPH @Foley_Kate__]

@jzaraterod @lindSLUe Couldn’t agree more. Also frustrating to see the words “shocking” or “shocked” repeatedly associated with this news. We are not shocked at all. And that’s the problem
