Non-compete
Curious what everyone’s thoughts are regarding the FTC ruling banning non-competes in for-profit organizations. Looks like non-profits are exempt. https://www.npr.org/2024/04/23/1246655366/ftc-bans-noncompete-agreements-lina-khan (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Mental Health Tech vs EMT
I am interested in mental health and psychiatry. I have over a year of experience as a research assistant in a mental health psychology lab, and over a year in a neuroscience lab to back that statement up. I would consider myself more well-informed about mental health and illnesses that most, so I believe I can make a compelling argument about my interest in psychiatry. It is probable that my personal statement will revolve around this interest in some fashion (although I recognize the value... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Johns Hopkins ($0 Debt) vs WashU ($0 Debt) vs Duke (Will Have to Take out ~45k/Per Year in Loans)
As the 04/30 deadline approaches, I become increasingly torn between these three schools. I’m leaning more toward Hopkins, and I’ll explain why below. In terms of specialty I would like to pursue, I’m still undecided, but I feel like I want to look into internal medicine, emergency medicine, psychiatry, or anesthesiology. Throughout medical school, residency, and my physician career, I want to be able to have a good amount of time to spend with my aging parents and my loved ones. For me...

How much to expect for covering someones practice
I have a friend who has a fairly boutique private practice, and will need several weeks coverage over the course of the next year. What might be a reasonable amount to get paid for this? I think the practice has around 50 patients. I would be able to bill separately if someone needed to be seen for a visit. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

BPD and ADHD comorbidity
There is a subset of BPD patients that I see that checks all the boxes for ADHD criteria. Now, I know these are treacherous waters, so I always try to check and double-check these cases: can the impulsivity be associated with emotional triggers and chronic feelings of emptiness, or it has a strong motor and learning component as well? Did these symptoms began before 12y.o? Do other family members give similar informations as well? Do the patients report significant sympotms from standarized...

Best ways to get referrals from y'all?
I'm a psychiatrist and potentially starting a private practice from 0. Would take major insurances, some Medicaid, no Medicare. Open to seeing pretty much anything other than ASPD/long criminal histories, but would like to keep substance use disorders to a minimum. Happy to see eating disorders, functional problems, ADHD, autism evals, in addition to the basic depression and anxiety. Do I just send letters to your offices? Should I stop by and talk to your receptionist and give out... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Attending subspecialty conferences during intern year?
I matched into psychiatry for the incoming 2024 cohort starting in July. I have long wanted to pursue forensic psychiatry even during undergrad, and I can see that while fellowships in general are not competitive, the more "prestigious" programs are getting more selective over time. My program is not a big academic center and not terribly well known. It isn't exactly rural or community, but its also not in a major urban area and there won't be many resources for me to get a lot of forensic... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Finding Clinical Research In Psychiatry for Experience?
I am interested in getting involved in clinical research since it may be helpful when applying for residency as a DO. As a bonus, I believe it would also help me to confirm that the field is a good fit and something that I can be invested in long term, but I am not sure how to get my foot in the door. I have emailed a few places (and may consider cold calling tomorrow since almost everything is closed in the US at this time) but haven't gotten results as presumably they have other things to...
