this patient went hospice and died that same hospitalization and I’ll never forget them
today I personally wheeled a patient from my clinic to the ED for expedited work up, albeit a soft call… pts labs just resulted and I’m so glad I didn’t get those critical results after hours 👀

Being a doctor is crazy because one minute you’re laughing hysterically with a patient showing you a TikTok, to walk into the next room an cry with a patient when you tell them they have cancer

I left my med student to finish out an admission interview and they didn’t come back for an hour… med student: I found out the pt went on the same 3 week cruise as my parents last summer so we called my parents and found out they went on the same excursion!!

there is always that ONE staffing attending who asks the most outrageous, niche and irrelevant questions Like bro they are here for a 15 min sick visit- I’ve never met them before. No I did not asked them about their nonspecific CT finding from 3 years ago…

me to my PCP tomorrow at my annual wellness… So I ran 100km this weekend, but started throwing up black tarry blood with melena but it stopped after 12 hours so I didn’t go to the hospital to get scoped. Also I need an XR on my foot bc I think I have a stress fracture

I lost my expensive stethoscope and using a $30 replacement… sensitivity is low but high specificity if I actually hear something 👌🏼
