Agreed. The shuttle is pretty straightforward. Easiest way to find convenient flights/travel times is into Minneapolis, then shuttle to Rochester.
Ok peeps so I've started to prepare for this thing, reading one of the prep books.
Questions are:
-When one asks for example for the history portion, do you just blurt out everything you want to know? for example, someone with knee pain, do you say, when did pain start, where is it at , radiation or not, what makes it better/worse, how do u describe it, etc et all in one chunk or do you ask one thing and then wait for the answer? i feel like if u wait for the examiner to answer it will take forever!
-Same with w/u - do u say I would get for example for a stroke, a non contrast CT, coagulation panel, if negative, tpa, etc etc? Or do u wait for the examiner to say, there is no bleeding on brain CT, and then u say ok let's do tpa for example?
-when u counsel - do u address the examiner as the patient/family or do u say I would say this to the patient bla bla?
