Medical Slang

Check out this video. I know it's old , I watched it a while ago together with the Anesthetists Hymn but I find both of them very funny (obviously in a geeky-medical way). I think my brother will find this particularly fun since he's always complaining about the medical slang.

It really is kind of stupid that they make us learn all that technical vocabulary so that when they finally have us interact with real patients the main complain is we're too technical, and use language patients cannot understand. Well, that's the point aint it? :P

I would write a longer post, but its really late and I have to finish the analysis of my patient's case.




By the way, the first week of Internal Medicine is over. I made it through! I'm kind of hatting it, but well, just 11 more weeks to go!
