    Ivy Insights

    The Intern At Work: Internal Medicine podcast is truly a gem in the world of medical podcasts. As an intern myself, I have found this podcast to be extremely helpful and informative in my daily practice. The episodes are concise yet packed with useful information, making it easy for busy interns to absorb knowledge on the go. The addition of the physiology minute segment further enhances understanding and connects the basic science to clinical practice. Overall, this podcast is a valuable resource that every intern should have in their listening queue.

    One of the best aspects of The Intern At Work: Internal Medicine podcast is its organization and attention to detail. Each episode is well-structured to ensure maximal absorption of information by sleep deficient interns. The episodes are around 10-15 minutes long, which is the perfect length to cover all the basics without being too prolonged. Unlike some other podcasts, there is no unnecessary chatting between hosts or attempts to outsmart guests. Additionally, each episode is reviewed by 2-3 educators to ensure content accuracy, adding another layer of quality control.

    Another commendable aspect of this podcast is its focus on addressing the issues and clinical problems that interns commonly face on a daily basis. While there are many medical podcasts out there, few specifically cater to interns and their unique challenges. The Intern At Work fills this gap by offering practical and informative discussions relevant to intern life. Although it has a Canadian setting, I have found it helpful even as an international listener.

    One minor downside of this podcast is that it may not provide enough in-depth discussion or exploration of certain topics. Due to its succinct format, some listeners may crave more detailed analysis or case examples for a thorough understanding. However, considering its target audience of busy interns, the brevity of episodes can also be seen as an advantage.

    In conclusion, The Intern At Work: Internal Medicine podcast is an excellent resource for interns seeking efficient and effective learning opportunities amidst their hectic schedules. The education and instruction provided are relevant to clinical practice, and the podcast is a pleasure to listen to. I highly recommend this podcast to all interns who are looking for a concise and informative way to stay on top of their studies while juggling their intern responsibilities.
