Helping people is what I like to do, its one of the main reasons why I got into the medical field. well I’m not fully in it since I’m still in medical school and doing rotations to see what part of the hospital I want to fully commit to and work it.
Right now I’m in the Ortho rotation and I will say this, if you’ve got a weak stomach dont get into surgery. There have already been some students that have been in my rotation that fainted and puked just merely watching a surgery being done from the viewing area.
and when the well known shark learned of it he was not nice about it and scared them away. telling them to get out of medical field if the sight of blood makes them weak and sick.
What I had learned from this rotation is Ortho is not my calling. and its not due to the ass of a surgeon Dr.Park who I have very wet raunchy dreams about. But due to the fact I dont feel like its something I want to always do as my career.
I’ll not pull out of the rotation casue I’m learnign a great deal of things that may come in handy later on down the road. & yes I’ve worked right along side Park both in the THeater and taking consults in the ER.
When he pulled me into his office sat me down and questioned me about my placement I was fulyl honest with him.
" Dr.park.. I respect thehll out of you ortho suregeons.. Its just not soemthing I see myself doing.” I say
he looked at me
" i dont even see you doing it despite the fact you do great both in the theater with me and during consults” he says
"but I’m not pulling out of this rotation. i’m sticking to it til lthe end. I’m not a quitter” i tell him
he nods and slightly smirks before his emotionally experession takes over.
"where ever you decide to join or stay.. I’ll write the letter of recommendation” he says
I smiled and thanked him before takign my leave.
since I am a student doctor and dont have the big pay rolling in. I have to take on jobs that have not been the most helpful with keeping my head above water with bills, and suving. but its better than nothing.
though the one I have its not what I actualyl thought I’d ever do. but desperation is a bitch and when you struggle and have no other options then you have to do something. and thankfully my boss works with me and understands my situation.
Which is a huge help for me .
I mean even with my job I do now I dont make nearly enough to get out of my crummy apartment, or move on to things that isnt ramen, or tv dinners that I heat in my microweave. but it keeps me alive in other ways, and helps with my student loan.
