Aw jeez, not this again. According to this consultant, hospitals now *lose* an average of $304,312 per physician per year. 🤦🏻 Guess it’s time for another thread on Budgetary Gerrymandering.

Shout out to the two University of Maryland medical students who spent an hour or so in my dad’s hospital room chatting with him yesterday. He broke his hip and is getting better, but it’s depressing sitting in bed away from home. He can’t stop talking about the visit from these…

Me: "If it's an allergy to red dye 40, then yes they could be allergic to a specific Benadryl pill" Resident: "How do you know that? How do you know a specific number?" Me: "doesn't everyone know about red 40?"

No offense to surgeons. But a surgery resident who rotated with me this week. He used a good silence after giving very bad news. He asked, "What does he enjoy?" "What makes him happy?" before talking about options. I was just ecstatic. @ColumbiaSurgery

For any given operation, there is a window in which one has performed enough of them to feel confidence in doing them, but not enough to have seen the rarer complications. In other words, the confidence comes before the fear; this is why we talk about these things a lot.
