Ah, its great to see us becoming more and more cynical, must be the whole ERAS thing! Can you believe ROL is due in a few weeks?
As for CanGuy, everyon's right, as an ED doc you will do practicaly everything, you'll do a lot of procedures (suturing, reducing dislocations, casting/splinting, removal of foreign bodies), a lot of medical issues (uncontrolled diabetes, MIs, pneumonia, abd pain, tons of gyne stuff, psych, drug overdoses, etc etc), as well as the non urgent stuff (sniffles, back pain, drug seeking, STDs <- which may be considered urgent if its a Friday night and you need to get some).
That's ONE of the reasons why I love EM, you see the gamut of EVERYTHING...
