http://scrubbedoutmedicine.blogspot.com/2009/08/costa-rica.html
Horrible advice, half-truths, bad opinions, tall tales, and everything else you'll need to navigate the challenge that is clinical year. In comparison, the US has only 84% of it's population on public municipal water, the rest is well supplied. Most other countries in the area only have 80-90 percent access to POTABLE water). Anyway, so far I haven't seen a single real patient, and am having way too much fun to really care. Here are a couple pics from my travels, more to come soon.I hope. Don't Just Do S...

http://clinicalyear.blogspot.com/2010/07/midway-ecuador-update.html
Learn Try. Fall. Get Back Up.Repeat x 15 Months. Monday, July 19, 2010. Must at least muster the energy to put up a mid-rotation post. My mini-list of excuses: A constant bug draining my health, limited connectivity, even more limited time, and giant lunch after clinic sweltering heat = nap time. Fruit Stand in Cuenca. Oh, am I ranting? Our teacher takes this class very seriously and we struggle to make it fun. Universidad Espiritu Santo, A Campus where Iguanas and Stray Cats Mingle. July 23, 2010 at 12:...

Pneumothorax in a 6 hour old boy. Still not unde...

Clinical Rotations: No Such Thing As Accidents
http://clinicalyear.blogspot.com/2010/06/lack-of-posting-has-not-been-for-lack.html
Learn Try. Fall. Get Back Up.Repeat x 15 Months. Friday, June 11, 2010. No Such Thing As Accidents. A lack of posting has not been for lack of stories, rather lack of energy. I ran into a fellow student who is doing a pediatric urology rotation and we were comparing schedules and hours. When we determined that 80 hours a week is a bit redunkulous, he encouraged me by saying "but at least you'll always have cool stories.and I just fixed another undescended testicle.".
