5 Stars

Today is a 5 star day. (out of 5)

I had a great morning in clinic, seeing kids w/ juvenile arthritis. My attending harassed me for missing grand rounds yesterday. I guess she asked out to the audience yesterday where I was sitting, and of course I wasn't there (I was at the court house). Afterwards, she made a point of going to the Pedi program director and saying that she enjoyed having me in clinic (she is the type who would never admit it to me in person, the pedi program director told me the conversation this afternoon). But this woman is awesome. She -CARES- about her kids. And in fact we saw a kid today who came in for a second opinion, and my doc plans on taking over care of this kid because the other docs aren't doing such a great job...

Then, this afternoon I got pulled from clinic to fill in and teach second year medical students. I got to listen to pt presentations and then go to the bedside and teach physical exams. It was so fresh seeing second year med students who are eager to learn. And it was fun to be able to have dedicated time to teach.


Now I need to put away groceries and get ready for a presentation tomorrow..
