How to keep sharp and update on medical knowledge post residency and board exam! Feeling like a fraud as a junior faculty!
I have just graduated from my residency this year recently board certified by ABIM (so now got promoted to paying the MOC mafia...). I am working now as a junior academic faculty since mid-September in another medium sized Academic center (some 80+ total cat and prelim residents)
My question is after the board passing and graduation, it is hard to motivate myself to learning as in the great amount of reading we all do in residency.
With that being said, I am so jealous of all the senior...

Can I still match IM?
Hi guys,
I'm a D.O student who has applied to 100 IM programs total, majority are community -based , with 10 low tier academic and 20 university affiliated programs. Here are some additional details:

Where are you guys finding good job offers?
So I'm helping a pgy4 in my program to assess jobs. Everything she is getting is around 200-250k, with 4 weeks pto basically. Also got an offer of $1200 as 1099 in a private clinic, seeing around 15 patients a day. Per SDN standards they are all horrible job, but all the offers have been like that. I think she's mostly asking people around, but most academic attendings are not helpful at all. I also took a look at indeed.com but mostly found huge chains that I assume are bad.
Any ideas...

PSLF + Side gigs/jobs
Hi! I"m a PGY1 Psych, with >300k loans
I consolidated my loans to stay on track for PSLF.
What's it like out there in the real world in terms of PSLF-eligible gigs? (in terms of salary, responsibilities, hours, etc)
Are they mostly low-paying academic jobs 200-250k, or can you find decent PSLF-eligile gigs +300k? (I'm in the Northeast region)
Anyone out here working a PSLF eligible job for <40 hours AND working another part time job? If so, what setting is your part time (e.g...

Private equity owned fellowships
I'm specifically applying for surgical retina this year, but probably applies to fellowships broadly.
I've asked around in academia and no one is sure what to say. There are some great retina fellowships out there that have been acquired by PE in the last couple of years. How do you think PE affects fellowship training? Personally I imagine clinic might run more efficiency? Not sure how it would change surgical numbers.
Would appreciate any insight (Source: Student Doctor Network)

How many patients you see in clinic in fellowship?
Hello everyone,
What is the average number of patients you have seen in clinic per day as a fellow in first, 2nd and 3rd year?
I'm a fellow in a academic/community hybrid program. We are seeing 7-10 in first year, ~15 in second year and upto 20 in third year. This is not a fellow run clinic. It is very busy and always thought to be as 'more patients you see more learning you'll get', which is true but it seems to increase work load/documentation at the same time which cuts down on study...

Do non-academic attending jobs care about research done in residency?
See title. Don't see a reason why they would but just curious. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Dads of Private Practice - how much time did you take off for paternity leave?
Work in a fee for service PP group and can take off as much time a I want but don't get paid a cent. For those of you out there in eat what you kill PP who have children, how much unpaid time off did you take around the birth of your kid? And do you wish you took more, or less?
Happy to hear about others' experiences too from the employed or academic world. The big difference though I think is that for you guys paternity leave is both defined and paid. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Mention 4-week voluntary LOA for Level 1 in "Was your medical education/training extended or interrupted" on ERAS?
My school for some reason made people take a whole LOA if you wanted 4 more weeks for boards even though we had 8 weeks of vacation and it ended up using 4 (graduating on time). They even put in a whole new elective "study rotation" the class of 2025 to not put a chunk of class in LOA but at the time I took it it was a LOA. It was marked as a voluntary LOA on MSPE. In terms of potential PD doubts about academic ability, my Level 2 score was decent, and I took step 1 & 2 as well, did alright...
