Per request from an dear old friend I'll shift to some things medical. Not that there is really much to write about the medical school these days. I doubt a public post of my experiences with the male and female genitourinary exam would be appropriate (or welcomed) by most. So, let's just say that things have been going...Just Going. Nothing shocking. Nothing more profound then learning to sort through liver function tests. I'm settling down into a more comfortable routine with my patient interactions, and sometimes I even feel like I know what I'm doing. We'll see how 3rd year clinical rotations go. I will actually be going to a clinic in Gallup, NM to do family medicine. I'm psyched! It's at a small IHS (indian health service) clinic staffed by only 4 physicians! So 4 weeks with the Navajo nation this november if things come together. In the meantime my next project to tackle, other than Arabic and the USMLE exam, will be to read up on Navajo History, culture, medical practices, and find some sites to check out in New Mexico and Arizona. I think I’ll finally get to see the Grand Canyon! Who thought I could get this excited about America?! They must have put something in the water today.
Well, that's all I've got. Apologies Guam. :) maybe next post ¶ 23:45
