Good free photo guide for sub-I's or interns looking to improve their otoscope skills! The text is oriented towards patients but the photos are great examples of ear pathology

New law: Every time you say physicians just push pills and don't care about their patient's health, you have to do 8 hours of state-mandated shadowing of a family physician.

A 40-year-old male patient presents with a 2-month history of a pruritic, nontender irritation at the nasal sills. What is your diagnosis?

There was never a Dr Dobhoff! The two docs (Dobbie & Hoffmeister) who invented it named it by combining their names.
I think they should have called it a “Hoffdobbie tube”

Taking phones off the internet boosts mental health.
People were randomly assigned to block mobile internet for 2 weeks. They socialized, exercised, and read more—and became happier, less depressed & anxious, and more focused.
Being unglued from devices is good for well-being.
7 am board prep lecture: heard “laryngeal agenesis has a mortality rate of 100%”
9 am clinic: saw a toddler w laryngeal agenesis running around collecting stickers
(neolarynx from esophagus)

A patient somewhere still remembers you because you were present and kind in a difficult, vulnerable moment when no one else was.

Every Friday for a year, I'd hangout in the OR's w/ Drs. Ed Kuan and Brian Wong collecting tissue for this study. I fell in love with otolaryngology on those Fridays and haven't looked back. Super excited to share this study that means so much to me. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Fantastic list Dr. Carlson! Excited to reference these resources. Some of the links are no longer active, possibly due to gov budget cuts?
The below link is my personal list of resources, several may be good additions to the list on headmirror! docs.google.com/document/d/1…

“Cobblestoning” of the nasal mucosa bilaterally in a patient with nasal sarcoidosis. Take it from me: never operate on these patients, as the whole nose can break down completely. The treatment is medical.

Your attention span isn’t fixed. It increases with practice.
Evidence: After 20min sessions solving cognitively challenging problems (10-20hrs total), students show significant gains in sustained focus and test scores.
Like physical stamina, mental stamina requires exercise.
