Started paediatrics on Monday and since then it has been crazy
The amount of knowledge demanded it like over the top.

And A&E is great you see a lot but getting grilled about all the paediatric differentials and presentations + investigations you wanna do + immediate/delayed treatment etc on your first and second day is not so good.. you realize how stupid you are and really, just having started is never an excuse! never..
Had clinical teaching on wednesday too where we got er scolded further! And that's when i was totally convinced that somehow paediatricians weren't nice after all, I am ok if they're mean to us cause at the end of the day even if you are put down, I am learning a lot and that's ok haha but the meanness to patients was like wow.. really incredible.

But.. today restored my faith in paediatricians haha went for neurology ward round and yes you get asked a lot of questions and you're expected to know stuff cause now you're in fourth year and at the end of it but the doctor was just so nice! Had more two on one clinical teaching sessions after which was with such a nice doctor like awwwww he said hi to practically all the patients on all the wards and he carried them etc.. so different from the ones we met earlier in the week!
Had development assessment osce style thing in the community after that which should have really read up more on before going but oh wells.. tired, long day of ssm ahead tomorrow!

The paediatric stethoscope in raspberry is extremely tempting! all the junior doctors have that.. maybe i should get it in the classic lithium.. haha safer in case i do not get to do paediatrics in the future! Yes, quite bimbotic..

Argh, presentation thingy for dermatology next week as well gahh i just can't wait for electives.. been planning it with my sis too, the travelling etc :) looks like i will be going to philidelphia, ny and washington before my electives and then head to ny, toronto and then staying around chicago for a bit after. fingers crossed, boston will come true..
