- Scrub pants without pockets should be illegal 😡 *said by a frustrated resident who has dropped her list 3 times already*
- I’m beyond ecstatic to have matched at @BCCHPedsSurg for Pediatric Surgery fellowship. Here I come Canada 🇨🇦!!!
- I just found out my residency program schedules primary care appointments for interns during orientation week to establish care. Is this a common thing?? Or am I just like the luckiest human ever to have matched at @BMCSurgery? #MedStudentTwitter #MedTwitter #DocsWithDisabilities
GIF - Starting my M4 gratitude project! Before graduating, I want to let everyone that had an impact on me during med school know how important they are to me & how I wouldnt be here without them. Planning letters for everyone from security to faculty #MedStudentTwitter #MedTwitter
GIF- Our paper is published! @BMCSurgery is an incredible and safe space for LGBTQ trainees and we wanted to share how we did it! Thank you @APDSurgery and @JSurgEduc for this opportunity! 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ Read it here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @TsengJennifer @OutSurgeons @BUMedicine @The_BMC

00:00 - If you were/are an applicant using social media as part of your process for deciding what residency programs to apply to, what things are you looking for? What would you like to know about programs? #MedStudentTwitter #MedTwitter #surgtwitter #surgery
- Med students from small/new medical schools, from underserved backgrounds, applying to competitive specialities, or with "red flags" on their applications have relied on away rotations to show their skills to programs. I know it was important for my application as an MS4.
- Find yourself a chair of surgery that knows your dietary restrictions and makes sure you have safe, labeled options at the holiday party. Thank you Dr. Tseng!! @TsengJennifer @BMCSurgery
- I agree, but can’t minimize the importance of understanding the background/communities of your patients in these hospitals. They’re not just there to teach us. Centuries of racist policies have created these disparities & it’s on us to recognize that too.If you are a med student considering where you next wish to train, I'd suggest a tough, inner-city, low-income hospital. You will see much more, and do much more, than if you choose some swank, country-club like place. #Meded
