So I had finished my inpatient medicine a few months ago. At our school our grades are not completed until all evaluations are in. We work with 2 attendings and 2 seniors. Anyways, the evals from the 2 attendings and the 1 senior were really good. But half way through we switched seniors and this new one gave me a terrible evaluation. He said to me things like you are not interested in learning medicine, you are only interested in passing the exam, everyone complained about you on this floor, nobody liked you. And I said, "well if I offended anyone I am going to go and apologize to them, because I don't like to see people upset and hurt". He told me "If I were you I would not approach this subject with these people."
Anyway, I went back and talked to people around the floor and none of this is true. What the hell is wrong with this person? It made me so upset that I cried for a day. I have never gotten a bad eval in my life. And I really thought that I did a good job during the rotation. And if indeed I did a bad job, how did I get a stellar evaluation from the attendings?
The other thing is this guy worked us to death, we had to do all the scut work for him, and I never complained about it, I did everything he asked me to do.
I subsequently found out that he knows that I am going into orthopedic surgery. Do you guys think that's why he hates me so much?
