I matched into
@ColumbiaDerm
! Five years ago I started medical school, and now, I am the first black man to match into dermatology at my institution. Stick to your dreams; you never know where your prayers, hard work, and good intentions will take you. Elated to say the least. 🙏🏾

Presented at my first conference. So grateful to all of my mentors who have pushed me to get to this far. I hope I can do the same for some person one day. From massive imposter syndrome to this, I have come such a long way.

Five years ago, I recall applying to medical school and the uncertainty that came with it. Cycles of faith, doubt, hope, prayer, fear, but in the end, the cycle ended with triumph. Five years later, I am hoping for triumph during this dermatology residency application season!

A simple, yet powerful phrase that has impacted my life so heavily is “the worst you can hear is no”.
Shoot your shot. What may seem like rejection really is just you finding the right door that you already hold the key to.

Had a great time meeting people and hearing about latest findings in Skin of Color earlier this month. Excited to continue on this journey into dermatology with meeting plenty of people on the way!

That’s my mentor! Even as a non-voting student, I urge everyone to go vote. Dr. Taylor is one of the most passionate, determined, and experienced individuals I have ever met. She leads by example. I can only imagine how well she would lead the AAD as President.
As we ramp up to the start of

Took a mini vacation (and loved it) because that’s just as important as working hard is 🙂

I think I’m slowly learning that part of the process of becoming great is recognizing (and being forgiving of) moments when your not actually at your best. It happens. Keep moving forward y’all. Sharing for anyone who needs to hear this.

Reading this thread reminded me of my
@PrometricGlobal
experience during STEP 1. While some proctors were fine, there were some who were rude and contributed to noticeable distractions during the test. It felt as though they saw us all as those "annoying type A students".
I thought coming home after finally finishing the USMLE step series would be such a victorious moment. Instead I’m replaying the moment where my examiner told me he “did not like my attitude” and proceeded to turn off my computer MID-EXAM.

Love this review series! Another thing that helps give it away on questions (for me) is the hair growth. With AIS there is no or very sparse hair but with 5aRD def due to the high levels of unconverted testosterone hair growth is present still in the vignette

100% the large for both top and pants. Made the mistake and bought medium bottoms and large tops per a recommendation…and it’s not 💪🏾🦵🏾 friendly imo. I am now considering buying new pants 😭

It was okay! But if I recall I think checking in bags and stuff was more expensive than I planned (enough to have equated to the price of other airlines)

The great feeling you get when you smile at a patient and say “have a great day” (and then have that warmth reciprocated) is indescribable 😭

#RemainingHuman
is a part of being involved with healthcare as a student that I often find difficult to do successfully. So during this rotation I told myself that I am going to be intentional about actively pursuing a non-academic activity on a regular basis.

Anyone have suggested resources for learning and improving with suturing? Trying to be proactive and *not* succumb to a current acute episode of imposter syndrome during my surgery rotation..
