Starting a cash pay podiatry practice
I'm a full time government podiatrist, and decided to experiment with starting a part time cash pay, house call practice, will share my experiences here on SDN for anyone who is interested. A plastic surgeon did a similar thread on sdn several years ago, so wanted to do something similar. His was more entertaining...
A little background, my practice has been active for just over 5 weeks. I've seen 7 patients so far.
It all started with an idea soon after I started working for the...

Didn't get the M3 elective I wanted
So I found out today that I didn't get the M3 ortho elective I wanted. Just wanted yalls opinion as to which available elective I should pick if I am dead-set in aiming to get into an ortho residency. The remaining available electives are: Plastic Surgery, Pathology, PM&R, Derm, Internal medicine and Neurosurgery.
Also, what are my chances of being able to do a home ortho rotation in M4, before it is too late to submit letters of recommendation? Is it common to miss out on a home rotation?...

Good luck to everyone on Match Day!!!
Just remember, every program in the country will train you to be a Plastic Surgeon, and that is a beautiful thing. And for those of you who end up in General Surgery programs we will be looking forward to seeing you at meetings and at the independent match in a few short years. You will also learn to be great operative surgeons and will have time to mature as a surgeon before stepping into this crazy world of Plastic Surgery.
Be grateful for what you have and enjoy the weekend. You will...
Good luck to everyone on Match Day!!! (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Take Notes While Shadowing
should I bring a notebook to take notes while shadowing? I just don't know what to take notes about since I still don't understand all the medical terms and meanings. I'm shadowing a plastic surgeon. The only notebook I have is those regular sized spiral ones you take class notes on (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Is a LOR from DO good for MD School?
I shadow a plastic surgeon who went to DO school. Would a LOR from her still be good for MD schools? Or should I go out and try to find more doctors to shadow but maybe one with an MD for a good LOR? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Face Transplant Surgery
All, but one, of the lead surgeons in facial transplant cases, Siemionow etc, are plastic surgeons. Residency trained in 5 year general surgeons + 2/3 year plastic surgery residency. (Devauchelle from France is an OMF surgeon, but he's the only non plastic program lead.) Wouldn't an ENT residency followed by a 2/3 year plastic surgery residency be better training for the vastly complex facial reconstruction required for face transplants; compared to thoracotomies and bowel resections...

Competitiveness of IR residency next year
In terms of competitiveness, how bad do you think it will be for the next year's match? Do you think it will be as competitive as dermatology or plastic surgery? Given ~120 total residency spots for IR/DR residency this year, how many more spots will be available for the next year's match? Appreciate your inputs. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

NJ Nursing Board allows Noctor to own medical clinic
I ratted this Medspa to the NJ State Board of Nursing. It is co-owned by a NP and a vascular surgeon. NPs are not permitted to own medical facilities in NJ. The vascular surgeon has no experience in the aesthetic techniques that he is supposed to be "supervising" the NP in. The NP believes in the weekend seminars and every patient is your guinea pig school of practice (as opposed to supervised credentialing). Have a look at the list of plastic surgery and dermatology services she...
