2023-2024 NJMS vs Hackensack vs Hofstra vs Stony Brook
Hi! So I am very fortunate to have received 4 acceptances this cycle from NJMS, Stony Brook, Hackensack, and Hofstra but I am having a lot of trouble choosing one medical school and the deadline to hold only one acceptance is coming up very soon so I’d appreciate any advice or insight on the matter. All the schools are pretty similarly ranked and price of the med school including scholarships are overall very similar. NJMS: Pros: - established school - able to commute from home to...

Meet the private doctor to the wealthy — at $40,000 a year
The rise of family office-style medical practices reflects the surge in wealth and growing demand for hyper-personalized, data-driven health care. www.cnbc.com Come to think of this, it always felt awkward to be reimbursed $50 for a Stellate block with fluoro or less than $20 for an intercostal block with fluoro. Risky procedures with difficult patients for almost free vs some suit making serious $$$ for shaking hands and scripts. This system is so broken. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Thoughts On PreReqs
Hi Folks, I am currently a pediatric ENT NP with 3 years of working at a private practice under my belt. Since beginning this specialty practice I have become more and more frustrated about the lack of continuity of care that I am able to provide my patients. After diagnosing something that will require surgery, I find it very unfulfilling having to pause my care, send a patient for surgery with one of my docs, then take back over their post op care. Being able to treat patients throughout... Read more (Source: Student Doctor Network)

I planned to continue with this being my main non-clinical volunteering activity for the next 2 years and should have 300 hours at time of application. My concern is...
