Hey #MedTwitter! My name is Kolin Limbrick. I’m a current M4 applying General Surgery this #Match2025. I’m passionate about mentorship and my dog, Obi. I hope to always find myself with a soccer ball if not in the OR!
Although graduating MD and DO students matched at nearly identical rates (93.5% vs. 92.6% in the 2025 NRMP Match), they matched into a different distribution of specialties.
OK SO FIRST I MAKE AND CERTIFY MY RANK LIST AND PROGRAMS MAKE THEIR LIST AND THEN ON A MONDAY IN MARCH I GET AN EMAIL TELLING ME IF I MATCH AND THEN ON THAT FRIDAY I OPEN AN ENVELOPE TO LEARN WHERE I MATCH BUT THE ALGORITHM FAVORS THE APPLICANT
Proud of my partner of 6 years (0.19 seconds) who will be moving from USF football to Alabama football this coming year! #RollTide
Thank you for continuing to motivate me to be proud of what we do and continually be the best for those we serve

Today I rounded in the hospital on my patients and saw many physicians wandering around away from their family along with dedicated nurses, security, sanitation team, and others. One doctor had a list of 5 hospitals as he checked off patients. Healthcare is a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week job. Many physicians don’t take time off. Thank you to our dedicated healthcare professionals and those who support us!

If you're lost, the answer is education.
If you're educated, the answer is execution.
If you're executing, the answer is persistence.
If you're persisting, the answer is experimentation.
