I have steam literally shooting from my ears right now, so I thought I'd vent on this board.
Got my pediatrics eval today. It turns out that the attending who seemed so friendly while I was on the ward ACTUALLY thought I was doing a bad job. She wrote in my eval that I showed limited interest and effort in learning pediatrics. Additionally, she wrote that I didn't make an extra effort to learn about other patients on the ward.
I sure wish she could have mentioned her thoughts to my face BEFORE the rotation ended. This totally came out of left field--I previously had thought I was doing great, and that I had a shot at honoring the course.
Anyone else have similar stories?
