Rog, you've either not read my posts, or you don't understand them.

Believe me, there have been times I've retracted so long I didn't have the arm strength to rip my gown off by the end of the case


Beats being what I call the "necrotic bowel bitch".

Give him a break. I'm assuming he is a surgeon. To them, cutting is always the answer.

You have a cold? Tax is surgery.

Stubbed your toe? Cut it off.

Can't poop? Take out the colon.



They definitely arent by the book treatment types

I don't miss 3rd year. 4th year is so much better.
It does all depend on the environment. You've not lived until you've retracted on a half-dozen open Chole's in a row . . . after a night on call.

We've always found surgeons to be very odd. Very touchy/feely about their patients and wanting to do very strange drug regimens that aren't so much evidence based as "I did this once and it worked"

Definitely a different breed of MD

Holding and manipulating necrotic bowel while the surgeon operates isnt my favorite part of third year.

Still better than the derm folks:

1. If its dry, wet it.
2. If its wet, dry it.
3. If its not supposed to be there, cut it off.
4. If none of the above fit, steroid cream FTW.

I love when I get to tell my sister (ophtho) that she is wrong about something.

Unnecessary shot. Surgeons usually know their medicine. Its the orthopods that are clueless

Eye surgeries gross me out. Like, I don't get how people do them so casually. Much respect though.

To be fair, only the orthopods pretty much ditch general medicine altogether.
