Termination from Residency

[Apollyon]

I’m licensed in TX, WY, CO, PA, and VA. I have also been licensed in TN and AL but I’ve allowed those to lapse.

And, yet, I don't know who you are! I let SC and HI lapse, myself.

Well the license clenches it. You've just revealed yourself to the world!

Well the AZ license clenches it. You've just revealed yourself to the world!

Oh noooooooos. <Said in the quietest tone>

The beauty of being yourself, and never doing or saying anything you can be ashamed or embarrassed of, even when anonymous, is that you don’t care.

I support posters who want to remain anonymous. And I understand the fear that students and residents have if doxxed, because they are in positions where others have significant amount of power over them and their futures. I’ve been in that position.

Even for those of us past training, the wrong hospital system can cause trouble if you share unfavorable things.

But thinking that someone knowing a given state or set of states where you are licensed is going to give you away, given the millions of licenses issued in this country, is just silly.

I've been licensed in SC, HI, and PA. Did I just doxx myself?

I have had people message me directly with my name on it, so yes, the more information I give, the easier it would be for others to track me. You can mock me if you'd like, but you're not important to me at all

You wound me. Oh my. Ouch!

But, seriously, if that is your take, that is wholly and completely on you. Best of luck!
