Fun fact, testicles are actually outside of your body cavity instead of inside of the abdomen like the ovaries because sperm survives better at a cooler temperature.
I delivered a baby on my medical school obgyn rotation whose Mom subsequently names “A’Blessin” and then goes, “but we’re going to call her Quinisha for short”. …like what?
I’m all in on classic names as well, you never have to explain how to spell it or correct anyone’s pronunciation.
Gory surgeries are pretty cool, but pretty rare these days unless you’re on a trauma service. Most stuff I’ve scrubbed in on recently has been done laparoscopically or with the Da Vinci robot. The surgeons like to torture us med students by having us scrub in, then stand there and hold a retractor for like 5 hours without a bathroom break while we get yelled at by the scrub techs. The surgical science museum sounds dope though, will definitely check it out one day
I would rather have a solid band than be pressured into taking my husband’s last name. It’s my choice ultimately, and I will most likely tack on whoever I marry’s last name onto my license/credit cards so I can still be Dr. Caffeinated professionally and Mrs. So-and-So socially if I choose to be. I don’t think diamond ring = changing your identity. Imagine if you were just assigned a new last name and everyone started calling you by it, just because society told you that this is the way it is.
Not sure if this was real or #forthecontent, but Rachel, I’m sorry you got so anxious over this. I’d like you to know that your temperature increases throughout the day. Plus, are you sure that your thermometer is calibrated properly?
If it makes you feel better about the six figures thing, docs don’t make six-figures until they’re at minimum 29. 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of med school, minimum 3 years of residency (but more typically 5-7) where you work your ass off despite the emotional and physical abuse for 52k, and then once you finally become an attending, you have ~$500k worth of compounding loans to pay at a 7% interest rate.
The pediatricians always leave the shots for the nurses so that they aren’t associated with the needles and kids (and young adults @kyle) don’t fear them. Glad you’re staying healthy.

They retract into the inguinal canal.

Did you see the one about Megan E. Finger? Her college email was “fingerme”

I love that idea! Because if it’s really “about the family unit” to guys, why not take the girl’s last name?

I love this series. Looking forward to reading it weekly!

Heading to Cancun for the week!

If you want to get really bougie, get a hand grinder. The automatic one generates heat which compromises the integrity of the beans.
I once witnessed a girl ask for “boneless wings without the sauce”. The waitress said, “…so chicken nuggets?”
I’ll take it. And thank you for using “he/she” as your doctor pronoun. Us lady docs of the world appreciate it 🙂
We all read The White Coat Investor. @me and crick next time, Bill.
The real question here is will the Crisco Cops be back in action for the parade on Thursday? Stay tuned.

Una buena experiencia, Victoria!
I got a Waterpik for Christmas #PGP
I have heard of the same practice, but called “hogging”.
I had no idea there were so many philly readers on here! PGP Philly meetup?
