@DrJofmedicine
who presented our team’s research project on “The Overestimation of eGFR Calculations in African Americans and it’s Effect on CKD Management” she absolutely CRUSHED her presentation 🔥🔥🔥
last week in clinic i chatted w/ the son of a pt. about the bags slowly forming under my eyes 2/2 third year 😂💀 - little did i know he works in skincare & gifted me some anti-aging eye cream during his father’s f/u appt. today 🥹 catch me on campus like this in few weeks 💅🏾:
Incredibly proud to share that I matched general surgery at Ascension Genesys in Grand Blanc, MI! I could not have done this without the help of mentors and peers from all levels 🙌🔪

@MedFitBlondie
completely agree !! i don’t want to match into residency who doesn’t want my personality, sees my passions and understands how i operate in a world outside of medicine !! 🔥🔥🔥
The 🐐🐐🐐. Dr. Gerall taught me so much during my Pediatric Surgery rotation at
@childrenshospsa
. Even let me stay after hours in the OR with her when she was on call. A great teacher and surgeon ! Huge CONGRATS and well deserved !!!!!🥳🥳🥳
the last day of a rotation is always so bittersweet - saying goodbye to attendings, residents, nurses & members of the care team that you’ve cultivated relationships with is tough but here’s to hoping i’ll cross paths with them again someday!! 3 clerkships down 5 more to go!!
Be your own biggest critic.
Be vulnerable and evaluate yourself. Find your weaknesses. Work at them. Day by day. No matter how long it takes. Until they become strengths.
Continue to be your own biggest critic and, I promise, you will find happiness.

"While providing resources to female orthopaedic surgeons is a step in the right direction, it is ultimately the duty of programs to create a supportive environment through not only awareness but action." as a student interested in ortho i'm thankful this research is being done

In my novice opinion, being unable to bear weight after an ankle injury can indicate a significant sprain or possible fracture. Imaging is the only way to know for sure the severity of the injury.
