what’s the biggest lie undergraduate medical education told you?
mine is the importance between indirect and direct herniae, which has come up a grand total of zero times since starting work

Why is postgraduate medical training so obsessed with making people do QI projects? I get that it’s important but making people do a relentless stream of shite projects of questionable quality and not much improvement done in a time scale to fit a 3-6 month block

One of my best ever learning moments in theatre was from an anaesthetic consultant “I couldn’t give a flying fuck about his fucking lactate”
I think of it often; and hope one day to be able to use it myself.

This self perpetuated hero mantra that the profession seems to love, needs to stop. It’s embarrassing.
I am paid money to do a job.
“Anesthesiologists do heroic work, too, but quietly. We battle with such things that literally make the difference between life and death, or at the least between a life well-lived & a coma-induced brain starved of oxygen.”

you know that whole "50% of what you learn at medical school will be obsolete in 10 years" thing
please tell me it's knowing indirect and direct herniae, cause that took up about 50% of every surgical block i did

Suspect this bloke wouldn't have been so angry about a woman wearing an Indigenous t-shirt if conservative lobby group Advance Australia & friends hadn't told him he should be angry about it.
This is the rage they're manufacturing.
