I can't even remember the last time I posted anything. There really is no excuse for the long delay. The past month was spent on a radiology rotation that was certainly the easiest month of my time here at school. Believe it or not, it was actually pretty interesting stuff. The kinds of things that can be picked up using the various imaging techniques with a trained eye is pretty amazing.
This past week has been spent on plastic surgery. I decided to split this month up and do two weeks of plastics and two weeks of ENT (ear, nose, and throat). The hours have been long. Usually I get there before 6am and stay until 8pm or so. There have certainly been some interesting cases. I have been very impressed with some of the facial reconstruction that the surgeons are capable of. This hospital sees a lot of trauma and they can take a banged up head, put 6-7 plates in it and things come together ok. And on top of that, they are usually able to hide most of the incisions Once again, I remind all readers to avoid motorcycles. I have seen several skin grafts too.
My ophthalmology application has come together. My personal statement is pretty much completed. I am just waiting for a letter of recommendation. I also need to finalize a list of programs and the application will be sent off.
