Roses are red 🌹 Violets are blue 🪻 You should only be giving *minimal* doses of naloxone 💉 And remember oxygen too 🫁

Shoutout to the real hero of my General Surgery rotation: the med student who left his rare Jasmine Edition of Surgical Recall in the break room. Dr. Luehrs you saved me from so many attending questions

Hot take: I’m glad DeepSeek is making all the tech /wall street guys freak out. Most AI feels overhyped and not nearly as impressive as the sales pitch. Competition is a good thing

Supposedly we will be getting specialty specific advisors next week. But for now our poor dean had to try to answer any and every question people could throw at him

School decided that the first week of January was a good time to give us a complete crash course into how The Match is gonna work.. have you ever seen 100+ med students have panic attacks on a single Teams call?

I feel like any honest reporting on this needs to also include the record profit margins United was making along with some of the harms that causes

So is it like an ER sequel? Same cinematic universe? Do all over the top medical shows just exist in the same reality?

If extreme exertion is on the diff is it worth asking about Pre-workout / supplement use? I can’t imagine that creatine supplements are doing any good to a young athletes kidneys

Why is airway management listed ahead of vascular access and fluid resus? Wouldn’t you need vascular access before attempting to RSI?

Surely I misheard. There’s no way Dr. Oz, the OG grifter, president of grift university, has been tapped to lead the largest and most influential US healthcare entity.

At this point I think I’ve learned, forgotten, and relearned Sacral OMT more than any other concept in all of medicine

Yea I’ve got nothing against OMM, but it’s a lot of work just for a small number of clinical hours 🤷🏼‍♂️

Currently packing up my car to move back to the main campus so I can complete a 1.5 week Osteopathic Medicine rotation… seems like a lot of moving parts for a pretty short rotation

Hey everyone in the #EMedsky / #EMsky orbit - I’m Peter. Former EMS person turned 3rd year med student. I only rode out Twitter for as long as I did for the old MedTwitter crew. I’m hoping to find some of the same over here PS: is #EMSsky a thing yet?
