Now what...

beth came into the clinic today and saw my doctor to establish her as her primary care physician. Beth moved up to Oregon and didnt have a doc yet so i convinced her that dr.x would be a great fit for her. thats how much i like this doc. best part about the visit was i got to draw her blood to run some labs :)

my interest in primary care is growing less and less each day. i find myself day dreaming while the doctor is counseling a patient on diet and nutrition. im pretty sure i have ADD and im pretty sure i need to be entertained/thinking at all times of the day or else ill be bored. damnit, i started out being so excited about this rotation and now im back to square one.

1) OB/ GYN
2) Pediatrics
3) Family Practice


ob/gyn still in the lead. i still havent been able to beat the rush of delivering a baby or pulling one out of a uterus during surgery. so rad.


the most interesting things i saw this week were:
-a 28yo M with major depression and insomnia who drinks a gallon of vodka a week [stated by him]. he came in with his wife who seemed oddly ok with everything. they had obviously been through a lot together.
-a 51yo lady who was following up on her strep throat and upper resp infection. she was really sweet and i learned a lot about her and her case.
