I was walking down the hall last week. A cute little girl was sitting outside of a pediatrician's office in the hospital's doctor's building. She saw me walking down the hall and loudly said "Hello Doctor!" At first I wasn't sure who she was talking to, but since I was the only person around and in a white coat, I assumed she was talking to me (and I didn't think it was worth correcting her). I said hello and told her that I loved her bright pink hat. She got a huge smile on her face and said "I LOVE your hair!"
Why everyone doesn't want to do pediatrics is besides me. Those children are so cute and fun to be around and besides, they have much more interesting pathology than adults. I'll take pediatrics any day!

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.
