Went straight from work to pick up a package at the mall. A group of kids saw me in scrubs and said “look it’s a doctor!”. Surprised me since at work patients usually guess that I’m a nurse first. Maybe a generational shift?
SO proud of the incredible multidisciplinary team at my outpatient clinic who worked with insurance to get my patient a $300 oral antibiotic course at a price that he could actually afford, sparing him a hospital stay and a line in his arm.
Wisdom from my patient, whose immunosuppression isn’t stopping him tending to his vegetable patch: “if you grow enough for yourself, you aren’t growing enough!”
