Mine (Resident):
1. Check Surgical Schedule, round on any inpatients (as early as 5am)
Scrub For Surgery. Assist Attendings in Surgery. Do Surgery Paperwork/Dictation. Go to Clinic/Office. See patients until 4 or 5pm. See Inpatients again. Go home--stay on call. Maybe come back in to see patient in ER.

2. Talked to a Podiatrist when I was starting to think about Medical School.

3. Dealing with patients and their problems--often making them better.

4. Dealing with patients and their problems--especially the ones who don't get better.

5. Yep.



My Attendings Day:
Show Up for Surgery 10 minutes late (OR Manager has been yelling at the resident due to the delay). Smile at the patient in Pre-op Holding.
Resident does case. Resident Sews. Resident Does paperwork. Attending jokes with nurses and anesthesia. Attending gets late breakfast, and shows up 30 minutes late for office hours (Resident has already been seeing patients). Resident Continues to see patients. Attending leaves early for long lunch with buddies. Resident finishes paperwork over lunchtime. Attending returns from lunch with his cronies, complaining about how they can't make any money in medicine anymore, and starts signing 5 figure insurance reimbursement checks for deposit. Resident sees patients. Attending leaves 1 hr early for 'meeting' (resident suspects Attending is going home to take nap, as he has been yawning all day). Resident finishes day and goes back to hospital.

((((Sorry, had too...one of my attendings reads this board :laugh: ))))
