Dr. Carolina Ferraz matched into #InternalMedicine at UConn! 🇺🇸
@cferrazmd saw her journey spiral out of control at one of the most decisive moments of her career.
Even so, she found her way back and built a strong, strategic, and human application that led her to match at the University of Connecticut.

Medicine unrelated insight (that may be popular but I think it’s worth the post):
Resolving conflict is not about getting your point across at all costs. It’s an investigation of how right you are. Be open to being wrong. Listen. Don’t just react, reflect.

Real case from yesterday’s shift: a (toxic) thread 🧵 🪡🧶

💊 Management 💊
🚫 No antidote — treatment is supportive.
🫁 Airway & O₂: move to fresh air, give humidified oxygen.
💨 Bronchodilators for wheeze/bronchospasm.
⚠️ Monitor 24h for delayed pulmonary edema.

✅ Key Takeaways
🧪 Bleach Acid → Chlorine gas
🧪 Bleach Ammonia → Chloramine gas
☣️ Both may cause chemical pneumonitis
😮💨 Supportive care only — no antidote!
🚨Monitor for 24h, as complications can be DELAYED (esp when you don’t know the exact mix, like in my case) 🚨

I’ve learned that asking good questions is a skill. It can be improved. Those who aren’t afraid to ask basic questions have a competitive advantage.

What I’ve realized: the smartest doctors ask the most questions. Medicine changes fast. Stay curious, admit uncertainty, and maintain a growth mindset.

And it’s here.
To my grandpa —
The son of immigrants who once walked to school without shoes to spare the few pairs he had.
Who worked hard, became a lawyer, and changed our family’s destiny.
Grandpa, you may have once lacked shoes, but you left big ones to fill. And I will.

Waiting for interviews is its own test of patience, persistence, and positivity. USMLE never really ends, does it?
