I was recently approached by a premed who asked about being a surgeon. I didn't have an answer for her because she was recently diagnosed with Type 1. Please no posts about Type 2, because I know plenty of surgeons with that. I have been curious about how many surgeons I can find with Type 1...
Hello all, my first time posting on here...
Recently, I've been admitted to a bs/md program. Although this in itself is an accomplishment, or so they tell me, I was wondering, how could I get my foot into the door for success after all my studies are completed? A lot of people tell me I should...

Hi All,
Could anybody give any insight into the differences between Columbia and Cornell, in terms of prestige, case load etc for specialities like neurosurgery, ent, plastics etc. Not as residency, but as departments in general. Because rankings always seem to rank NYP as a whole and not the...
Hi All,
Could people please explain to me what sub-internships are exactly. How many do you do? Home many at your institution, how many at another? Do you only do ones in your chosen speciality? How do you chose? Institution or Faculty Chair? Sub-Internships at the institution you want to do...
Hello Everyone,
I have read many many posts and forums regarding this whole topic of DO school and residency.
I do fully understand that MD vs. DO, the title is not everything. It is how the student does in school, board exams, interaction with your faculty, etc. With my stats, I am more fitted...

Does anyone know if the lye soap used for scrubbing into surgery will affect/damage a tattoo?
EDIT: After reading some comments I realize that no one uses lye for scrubbing. For some reason I must have misheard the vet at the practice I volunteer at when he told me the type of soap they used. I...

I'm an MS-2 interested in Cardiothoracic surgery. The aorta and aortic valve fascinate me and I want to specialize in aortic surgery (like Allan stewart or Leonard Girardi). How much longer is training and what is the pay and lifestyle difference compared to general CT?

Hey all. I'm an MS3 who has been very undecided all throughout medical so far about deciding which specialty I will apply for in the match. I've always shied away from surgery because my marriage and my mental sanity are my highest priorities and I need balance in my life outside of work. I...
Please don't accuse me of being naive for positing this question, but I had a question about Match lists. So I'm applying to the following BS/MD Program Medical schools and I was doing some simple statistical analysis. I am only interested in surgery, so I compiled data on matches into surgical...
With residency programs not having a lot of information online what role do you think the Doximity Rank lists should have on rank lists? Of course interactions with residents would cary a lot of weight but is Dox good for determining "prestige" for programs (like surgery)? It seems like the...

I was wondering if (hypothetically) I enter medical school with the mindset that I want to specialize in surgery, will I most likely have to switch to an easier speciality? And if so, then is it because surgical residencies only accept the cream of the crop of medical students? Or is it because...

Alright, so I'm one of those students who has just kind of continued with life in the midst of medical school. I am, in my truest form, a bit of a jack of all trades (well, Jill, I guess). I have LOVED nearly all of my rotations, have gotten along with everyone (preceptors, patients, other...
