Today I spoke to someone who said how suicidal they were when they had acne and how accutane changed their life. It reminded me why I’m so passionate about derm and acne. I love this field. We have so much power to make a change in patients’ live.

The hardest part about rotations being so short is forming really strong relationships with patients and investing so much time into their care and suddenly you have to switch and never see them again. Breaks my HEARTTTTT and this is why I can’t do hospital medicine
