Derm vs Plastic...which has more good looking people?

Members don't see this ad.

Just want to have a fun thread. I'm a volunteer at a big academic hospital. Every time I passed by the dermatology floor, it seemed like it was the spot where all the good looking residents hang out at. I don't have much experience with plastic department but the residents who I got to talk to were all decent looking as well. The females are usually the pretty ones while the men are less so (a lot more handsome mofo than other departments but most are below average). What's your experience at your med school like? Do the attractive people tend to follow these two specialties?

Back to pre-allo with you

Derm always killing it

 

[Wordead]

Derm is always the best looking specialty, by far.

Biased, but I'd actually put ENT at #2.

Interesting, I haven't met any ENT resident as of yet but one can do a facial reconstructive fellowship after so I guess it somewhat aligns with the plastic surgery field as well.

 

[MedWonk]

Derm. Wouldn't want a less attractive specialty checking out my butt moles.

 

[PreMedBeauty]

It makes sense why I'm interested in either field. 😛

You have a derm "floor"?

 

[Winged Scapula]

Moving to Pre-Allo.

 

[WedgeDawg]

Curious about what people would say is the lowest specialty on this scale

The prettiest girls seem to be in nursing imo.

Kinda, the floor is where all the dermatologist offices located.

 

[Law2Doc]

Derm is usually up there, mostly because of the benefits of having time to sleep and exercise post residency.

 

[allantois]

the best looking would be wives of plastic surgeons! 😀

Ortho. Because they all lift more than the other specialties combined.

Mehh, lifting doesn't equal attractiveness. I was mainly concern about facial aesthetic but hey a good body helps.

 

[Dr.Smexy]

This was when I smelled troll...

Huh is it uncommon to have a designated floor that contains all dermatologist offices? You can call it department I supposed but floor just makes more sense to me

 

[Winged Scapula]

This was when I smelled troll...

Maybe an outbreak of eczema...

 

[Dr.Smexy]

"Floor" in a hospital in medical parlance implies an inpatient care ward

Oh neat, I didn't know that since I'm a pre med.

 

[PreMedBeauty]

I'm willing to pursue that route in place of MD as well. LOL The dental industry have a certain clean type of look as well I have noticed even just the assistants.

 

[Hospitalized]

There's a seriously bangin' orthopaedic surgeon in the hospital I work at. Otherwise, it seems like the ER technicians are the best looking.

A good face on someone that doesn't even lift is a depressing thing to behold.

 

[Mad Jack]

Physical therapists, dieticians, and nurses tend to be the best looking around here. Between the two though, derm for sure.

What if they're a runner, gymnast, swimmer, cyclist, or dancer (of either sex)?

I've got a clever reply, but I've been grilled for derailing recently and I can easily see my comment dragging this thread in a different direction, so I'll abscond from this one.

Shoot me a PM if you want - I'm curious!

 

[seminoma]

I miss pre allo.

 

[CherryRedDracul]

Derm. At my school's derm program, the residents have Juvederm injection parties.

I kid you not.

 

[solitarius]

Good looking girls don't like to work grueling hours or get their hands dirty.

I promise...I won't ding you. 😉

Maybe.

Maybe not.

Try me. 😛

Well everyone in the hospital gets their hands dirty at some point. In derm you are handling some pretty gross looking skin conditions.

 

[Lucca]

😛

Too much hype now, do not proceed

 

[Moose A Moose]

Then they better be equipped with a good brain in that pretty, little head of theirs to match derm.

 

[Mad Jack]

That's why I didn't. If it isn't off the cuff, it feels forced.

 

[deleted407021]

Even in residency.

The derm residents notoriously stroll into the coffee shop around 9:30 or so.

Sometimes we see them when we are in between our first and second case of the day.

Outside of that...spotting on in the hospital is kind of like spotting a unicorn...
