Healthcare reform
Looking forward to the demise of our healthcare system. Our President for some reason thinks that the VA Healthcare system is an ideal one. Has he ever been in there??
I'm disgusted that our president, who I voted for, is more interested in making deals with pharmaceutical companies than truly interested in finding solutions - i.e. lowering costs. The reform does not talk about capping malpractice lawsuits at all. If anything, we should work on malpractice and the entire medical education system needs to be revived since defensive medicine is so intermixed with the general practice of medicine that most physicians can't tell one apart from another. There are several big county hospitals all around the country that still utilize hand written notes. I'm glad that our president has addressed this issue and wants to fix it.
But some of the models that I've heard from the president and his so called advisors are baffling. Incentive based payment of physicians for example. Perhaps that president needs to realize that when a physician treats the patient, the patients role in his/her health is just as important as a physicians. So, even though a physician may do everything appropriately if the patient neglects to follow a good diet or take medications, in this system the physician gets penalized for it. Additionally, medical education in the United States is much more expensive than 99% of the countries. This is yet another issue that the president needs to address.

Update
Exams check, match check...
So, I'm done with everything. Fortunately my CK went well enough. Followed by a fantastic sub-internship where I ended up signing for my residency. I've been fortunate enough to get very good evaluations from my attendings. So now that I've finished everything I'm working on some clinical research until I start my residency. Was worried that I will lose all clinical skills b/c of the huge gap between med school and residency. Been busy working but I'm trying my best to continue to read various blogs and articles to stay in touch with medicine. My goal is to get back to residency with all the knowledge that I had as a 4th year med student if not more.
If you guys have any questions, continue to email me. Thanks!!!

Better late than never
So..I haven't posted in a while. Had a couple of very rough rotations. Anyways, I'm back. Studying for Step 2. Taking it this month.
Basically changed my entire study plan and its giving me good results so far on UW. I'm not writing about it yet because I haven't taken the real test.
God willing/Jesus willing/Ganesha willing/Pramukh Swami willing/Insha-allah/etc. if things go as plan, I'll do well and then I'd love to share my game plan with fellow students. If anyone, ...and I mean anyone who's reading this would like to correspond with me..please leave a message or shoot me an email. Happy studying, until then..

Study update..
Ok..so I finished watching all rheumatology as planned. Today, I plan on starting Peds as per the plan.
I also have to look up some articles about upper extremity DVT which I have to present after rounds tomorrow. I've already found two articles that I'm going to read. Another 1 or two should suffice.
In case someone is reading this blog..and has any questions about USMLE or my preparation, feel free to leave a comment.
