Nicole's Adventure!: Techno

Nicole, MD

I'm no longer an expatriate. I started my 3rd year of medical school in Miami and have finished my first set of medical boards, which I passed! I've been to the little island of Dominica and Miami. I completed my Family Medicine, OB/GYN and Internal Medicine clerkships while living in the beautiful city of Miami Beach, FL. I moved to New York City in the beginning of August 2011, passed my second set of boards and finished rotations in Astoria, Queens in December 2011. I have not been posting as much as I have been extremely busy. It is hard to believe that I finished medical school, landed a pediatrics residency and that I'm finally Nicole, M.D.

Techno

I like lots of types of music, but I've never understood techno or house music. I can't stand it! Why does the college guy who lives above me love techno so much? Why does he love it the most after 10:00pm? Why can't he go out to one of the many clubs on South Beach rather than turning his apartment into a club!! Why, why, why???

Just enjoy my medical tidbits as just that, fun interesting facts that I'm learning during the early stages of my medical adventure and sharing with you. Moreover, the views on this blog on mine and mine only. They are not endorsed by the hospitals or university that I work for nor are they the opinion of any professional organization that I am involved in. They are just my opinions.

HIPAA: To ensure that I comply with privacy regulations, I change the name, age, sex and maybe even the disease of patients that I interact with. I see my stories as historical fiction. The funny or enduring interaction is what I want to share, not personal details of someone else's life. Thus, the interactions are based in reality and sometimes even a combination of several real interactions, but the details have been changed.

White Coat Ceremony: First Do No Harm

"No greater opportunity, responsibility, or obligation can fall to the lot of a human being than to become a physician. In the care of suffering, [the physician] needs technical skill, scientific knowledge, and human understanding....Tact, sympathy, and understanding are expected of the physician, for the patient is no mere collection of symptoms, signs, disordered functions, damaged organs, and disturbed emotions. [The patient] is human, fearful, and hopeful, seeking relief, help and reassurance." ---Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 1950
