When medical school forces couples apart, students face tough realities Medical students dish on the messy, tender, and surprisingly philosophical reality of long-distance relationships during med school, from navigating five-hour drives and FaceTime rituals to deciding whether love can survive diverging lives on opposite sides of the world. Dave is joined by co-host M1s Cory Karasek and first-timers Elizabeth Meyer, Margaret Huang, and Jonah Albrecht — each bringing a completely different version of the long-distance story. Liz is making it work with her boyfriend Riley, who logs most of the miles so she can keep studying. Jonah is bracing for the moment his girlfriend Victoria leaves for PA school hours away, still figuring out the logistics while trying not to be, as he admits, aggressively Type B about the whole thing. Cory brings the perspective nobody wants but everyone needs — the relationship that didn’t make it through the distance — somehow managing to be funny, honest, and more or less at peace about it. And Margaret? Well, she opens with “I catfished you guys” and proceeds to deliver an unexpectedly beautiful take on love, friendship, and a 15-year long-distance best friendship that started on Skype in fifth grade. If you’re wondering whether your relationship can survive medical training, this episode won’t give you a formula — but it’ll give you something better. You’ll walk away with real talk on how to have the big conversations before distance hits, when “figuring it out as you go” works best, and how intentionally folding your partner into your new world can be the thing that keeps you from drifting into strangers. It’s warm, it wanders, it goes places you don’t expect — and somewhere between the insider trading jokes and the onesie party bus tangent, there’s genuinely useful stuff in here for anyone trying to love someone from far away while also surviving med school.

Slather some beef tallow on it. On this episode, M3 Fallon Jung, M1s Isa Perez-Sandi and Cory Karasek, and M2 Maria Schapfel let loose on the internet’s wildest health content. We react to AI-generated videos claiming cortisol is why Dave smells bad, Colonel Sanders warning you about non-biodegradable supermarket fruit, and those unhinged animations where a screaming spine demands you fix your posture. Some of it’s nonsense, some of it’s accurate, and all of it leads to tangents about fake vomit made from chunky soup, whether the ER triage nurse should tell non-emergent patients “good news, you’re not dying,” and the eternal question every clinical student faces: “So what specialty are you going into?” We talk about imposter syndrome, being “pluripotent,” the secret ER life hack nobody tells you about, and why Jeff Goldblum’s face should be used in all AI-generated health content. It’s an hour of medical students trying to make sense of what social media is feeding their future patients—and themselves.

[Content warning: Dave did his best to remove sniffles.] Spicy chicken nuggets, bad decisions, and what happens when medical students test their heat tolerance on mic What happens when medical students, extremely spicy chicken nuggets, and microphones collide? Regret. M1s Reed Adajaar, Trever Maiers, Ben Cooper, and Matt Taylor assigned themselves a Hot Ones–style challenge featuring progressively hotter sauces on chicken nuggets. Confidence is high at the start. That does not last. As the Scoville units climb, so do the sweating, the panic, and the chaos at the table. Milk appears. Milk fails. Conversation continues anyway—exploring their goals for a new semester, their knowledge of anatomy, and how their past experiences are serving them as they go through med school. Things start off mostly coherent, move towards entertaining attempts at coherence, and finally devolving into incoherence as the magnitude of their error in suggesting this episode becomes truly apparent. This episode is light on medicine, heavy on heat, and fully committed to the bit. If you've ever said “How bad could it be?”—this episode has an answer.

This episode starts with the important questions, like whether I'm emotionally prepared to return to my ancestral homeland of Big Bend National Park, and whether Kristin would rather share a cabin with a venomous snake or a tarantula. From there, things take a turn into real life: a med student driving for Uber and Lyft just to make ends meet. That story opens up a bigger conversation about medical school debt, why med students somehow aren't paid anything, and how it makes zero sense that people training to become doctors are expected to survive without income, or time to work. Then we crack open First Aid and let Kristin pick our fate. That leads us into adult primary brain tumors, specifically meningiomas and hemangioblastomas, including why meningiomas can be sneaky, asymptomatic, and surprisingly common, and how hemangioblastomas connect to Von Hippel–Lindau disease and renal cell carcinoma. Takeaways: Big Bend Reality Check — Cabins, snakes, tarantulas, scorpions, and unresolved marital fear negotiations. Med Student Money Math — Why driving Uber during medical school should not be the solution. Meningiomas Explained — Common, usually benign, often asymptomatic… until they're not. Hemangioblastomas & VHL — Rare brain tumors tied to a genetic syndrome and kidney cancer. Still Googling Medicine — A reminder that even doctors sometimes stare at First Aid wondering where their tuition money went. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

We're talking about rural medicine, where the needs are huge, the systems are broken, and sometimes, you just have to trust the process. Did you know that rural Americans have only 13.1 docs per 10,000 people compared to 31.2 in urban areas? Yeah, the need is real. But why are these students signing up for the challenge? And what the heck does a $50 billion Senate program have to say about processed cheese slices?

More than 3,000 refugees in Kansas City have gotten help acclimating to their new homes since 2014 thanks to Della Lamb Community Services. Many of these new arrivals face unique health challenges, so a local crew of medical students from Kansas City University is volunteering their help.

Everyone knows med school is hard. For some, it's even harder. Dave Etler hosts a raw conversation with med students M1 Emily Baniewicz, M3 Jeff Goddard, PA 1 Chloe Kepros, and M3 Madeline Ungs about the reality of navigating disability during medical training. With insights from Jenna Ladd, PhD, CCOM's recently hired accessibility specialist, they dig into accommodations that range from extra time to simply having a chair. The group shares stories of advocating for themselves while trying to keep up in a system not designed with their bodies or brains in mind. They discuss how their chronic illnesses, anxiety, and invisible disabilities show up in pre-clinical courses and clinical clerkships, why getting help can feel like a confession, and why pushing for equity isn't about advantage over others — it's about access. Also, yes, someone did pass out during shadowing. And while some may say a disability means they don't belong here, the fact is, medicine needs them.
All of med school leads up to one moment: Match Day. But how do get there? Dave Etler sits down with graduating M4s Mallory Kallish (surgery), Matt Engelken (OB/gyn), Jacob Lamb (radiology), and Will Sai (famiy medicine) to unpack the uncertainty and pressure around choosing a medical specialty. They share how they landed their matches—not through sudden epiphanies, but through trial, error, and sometimes vibes. We hear about emotional rotations, mentors who came through clutch, and interview seasons fueled by spreadsheets or sheer gut instinct. And yes, we talk about the infamous stereotypes: are you “too nice” for surgery, or “too male” for OB? Also in this episode: the hidden power of palliative care, how to survive pre-clinical burnout, why some specialties get unfairly labeled “dead ends,” and what it means to feel like you belong in a specialty—even if you don't fit the mold.
In this episode we dive into one of the most debated topics in medical education—should medical students have to work overnight shifts? We break down both sides of the argument, from whether it builds necessary skills to whether it just reinforces unnecessary suffering. Takeaways: Med students doing night shifts remains a heated debate, with strong opinions on both sides about whether it actually improves training. Bribing kids to try harder in sports works… but it may also backfire when they start expecting to be paid for everything. Elizabeth Holmes will remain in prison after losing her appeal, marking another chapter in the Theranos fraud case. Doctors love arguing with each other, especially when it comes to medical education policies and resident training. Understanding motivation is tricky, whether you're training a doctor or a fourth-grade basketball player. — We have an active survey going.

LIstener Neurotic Premed dropped us a message at https://theshortcoat.com/tellus to ask what medical students in long-distance relationships, both platonic and romantic, do to keep them alive and healthy. MD/PhD student Madi Wahlen, M2 Fallon Jung, M3 Jeff Goddard, an PA2 Julie Vuong have a lot of experience in that area. From long-distance parenting to making sure friends still feel connected, it takes planning and intentionality along with a slight tweak to what it means to be "together." They share how they do it successfully! Plus, Chinese researchers appear to have cured a man of his diabetes, Ozempic is powerful enough to affect the food and beverage industry's bottom lines, and Florida allows c-sections outside of hospitals in a bid to improve access.

On today's show, I open with a list of restaurants closing across much of the United States. As opposed to the Left trying to normalize inflation, we are seeing the ramifications of Bidenomics in action. Next, I repeat a story I like to use to illustrate the difference between charity and theft. I think it makes for a perfect backdrop for the Biden regime once again trying to buy votes by paying off student debt. We move to a judge that has been nominated by Biden for the Federal bench. To show just how radicalized the judiciary is becoming, I turn to Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) who asks if her politics or fairness what drives her decisions. The back and forth is stunning. A story in the Washington Free Beacon is reporting that 50% of medical school students at UCLA fail basic tests of medical competence. A whistleblower says affirmative action, which is illegal, is to blame. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) loves our open border. He discusses the border bill that Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is trying again to ram through the Senate. I spend time picking apart Murphy's ridiculous statements, which provide a road map to how the Left thinks. In fact, an illegal just stated they are concerned that that American people have no idea who is coming into their own country. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doubles-down on lawfare when she appeared on Chris Hayes's show on MSNBC. She also claimed that Trump is growing broke on legal bills, yet says he is “bussing people” in to the rally he is holding in the South Bronx. Finally, Nikki Haley has finally decided she needs to be relevant again. In an announcement, she is going to vote for Trump and suggests Trump reach out to her millions of supporters to gain their votes as well.

The burden of loneliness on seniors is real and well-documented. That's why med students at McMaster University in Ontario are visiting a seniors' home one Saturday a month… not with clipboards, but with emery boards. With manicures comes conversation – helping seniors feel less isolated, and helping med students “polish up” on their soft skills.
Dr. Kamangar chats with Alyssa Ashbaugh Ortega, MD, Carmel Aghdasi, MD, Vidhatha Reddy, MD, Dermatology Residents and prior SF Derm Medical Students. They discuss what an average day of a Resident might look like, the differences and the journey between a Residency versus when they were in med school, exposure to life and the business side as a dermatologist, studying for boards, plans after Residency, and of course, the future of dermatology. As Dr. Kamangar mentions in the beginning of this episode, these Residents ARE the future of dermatology.
Dr. Kamangar chats with SF Derm Med Students, Payton Smith, Chandler Johnson, and Kathryn Haran about their research gap year at University California San Francisco with Dr. Tina Bhutani and Dr. Wilson Liao. They explore the day in the life of a research med student, the differences between being a third year student and a research year student, the dermatology student journey, considering the application process, fun things to do in San Francisco, goals and advice for med school research year, being involved in local dermatology societies, and the future of dermatology with future dermatologists.

When 3rd year med student Megh Kumar told a mentor she'd decided to go into OB GYN, she got an unexpected piece of advice: don't. It's been more than a year since the Supreme Court revoked constitutional protections for abortion rights with their Dobbs decision. Since then 13 states – including Megh's home state of Kentucky – have banned nearly all abortions. Some states have criminalized performing or abetting abortion. The effect has been chilling not only for patients who need them, but for doctors who feel it's their medical duty to provide them. As the next generation of doctors like Megh enter this field of medicine, many are asking themselves if it's worth it. Abortion providers are often targets for harassment and violence, and studying in a restrictive state might limit training opportunities. Data show a more than 10% decrease in residency applications to OB GYN programs in restrictive states. If fewer doctors are training to be OB GYNs, what does that mean for the rest of us?

Dr. Erkeda DeRouen talks to Brett Riggins, a speaker, author, investor, and founder of Connect Home Buyers and Physician Wealth Systems. They discuss the benefits of having a great mindset in medicine, why physicians should learn about real estate investing, and how to surround yourself with the right people. [00:00] Introducing Brett Riggins [03:32] Brett's Journey to Real Estate [05:59] Why You Need to Have a Basic Understanding of Real Estate [08:46] The Mindset You Need to Succeed as a Physician [11:35] Are You Taking Advantage of All the Opportunities in Your Life? [16:32] Change "I Cannot" to "How Can I" [18:37] To Succeed, Surround Yourself With The Right People [20:20] What Brett Would Change About Healthcare [24:30] Insurance and Why We Must Restructure the Healthcare System [26:58] Be Proactive, Not Reactive [28:09] Parting Thoughts The Mindset You Need to Succeed as a Physician You need a great mindset to succeed in all aspects of life, not just medicine. As a physician, especially early in your career, you'll face demanding situations, complex cases, and endless sleepless nights. Your resilience will be tested, but a strong mindset will keep you going. So, instead of burying yourself deep in books, make time to develop a flexible and open mindset. This will allow you to embrace change, be more resilient and stay at the forefront of your field. According to Brett, having the right mindset can be the difference between surviving and thriving as a physician. With a great mindset, you can turn obstacles into opportunities and setbacks into stepping stones. Take Advantage of Every Opportunity in Life In life, you will get lots of good opportunities. You will take some, and you will miss some. The key is to take advantage of as many opportunities as possible. The more opportunities you take, the better because sometimes, one opportunity can mean the difference between a mediocre life and an extraordinary one. Brett believes the first and probably most important step in taking advantage of every opportunity is saying yes more often. Not all opportunities are great. But saying yes a lot more ensures you don't miss out on the good ones. The best things in your life will happen because you said yes to something. Otherwise, your situation will stay the same.

This is a lecture I gave on November 5, 2023, to pre-medicine undergraduate students at University of California Berkeley.
We've all been to bad doctors and we all know that some doctors just don't take us seriously, but this Vegan took it a step further and went on a F Bomb Rant on Reddit, cussing their doctor, presumably thinking they were going to get some pats on the back for it. I guess they weren't expecting to get schooled and put in their place by fellow vegans and plant based doctors. Even a few Med Students were showing them up!Watch to find out more!

There are so many choices to make as an undergrad in med school: selecting which medical field to go into; whether to go down the academic path; and how to use your knowledge and skills to find success and create positive change in the world, to name a few. On today's episode we're going to hear from someone who helps students work through all of those questions and also assists faculty colleagues with adjusting to the changing medical education landscape. Dr. Kim Tartaglia does all of this wearing several hats at Ohio State University Wexner College of Medicine including Professor of Medicine, Director of the “IMWell” program for internal medicine residents and Director of Faculty Mentorship. “There are so many different ways to make an impact that there's not one path to success and there's not one path to be impactful,” she tells host Michael Carrese. Listen in to this episode as Dr. Tartaglia shares her perspective on how medical education has changed since the pandemic as well as how students and academic leaders are relating to each other differently as they work to improve the med ed system. You'll also learn how she chose her specialty in med school, what drew her to stay in academics, how she established an enjoyable career in medical academics, and the benefits of attending OSU's College of Medicine. And stay tuned to the end for an enlightening discussion of the role of lifestyle medicine in treating and reversing disease, and the benefits of coaching and mentorship for med school residents.Mentioned in this episode: https://medicine.osu.edu/

There's always something more to do, but should you do it? And how much? First, we get something important out of the way: Is “Drinking from the Firehose” the best analogy for medical school's workload, or is “The (Infinite) Stack of Pancakes” more accurate? M2s Matt and Zay, MD/PhD student Riley and M4 Nathen discuss how they decide how much to do in medical school to become the best doctor they can be.
Canceling a speaker is run-of-the-mill these days. So, when a university “cancels the cancellation,” it's worth noting. Dr. Kristin Collier is a professor of internal medicine at the University of Michigan and director of the school's Program on Health, Spirituality and Religion. She was a natural choice to give the keynote address at the school's white coat ceremony for incoming students. The Gold Humanism Honor Society selects speakers “who are exemplars of compassionate patient care and who serve as role models, mentors, and leaders in medicine.” A group of 300 students protested because of Collier's pro-life views. “We demand that UM stands in solidarity with us and selects a speaker whose values align with institutional policies, students, and the broader medical community,” they wrote in an anonymous letter. Rather than bow to the pressure, as so many school officials have done in recent years, medical school dean Marschall Runge defended the choice of Collier and the school's commitment to freedom of expression. “Our values speak about honoring the critical importance of diversity of personal thought and ideas,” he wrote in a statement. “We would not revoke a speaker because they have different personal ideas than others.” The handful of students who walked out during Dr. Collier's address missed something special, an incredible speech that challenged students to rethink what medicine is and is for. “The risk of this education and the one that I fell into is that you can come out of medical school with a bio-reductionist, mechanistic view of people and ultimately of yourself. You can easily end up seeing your patients as just a bag of blood and bones or human life as just molecules in motion.” You are not technicians taking care of complex machines, but human beings taking care of other human beings. Let's resist a view, of our patients and ourselves, that strips us of our humanity, and takes away from the very goal of why we went into this profession in the first place: to take care of human beings entrusted to our care in their moments of greatest need.” From there, Collier challenged these medical professionals in training to ask big questions about who they are and what they do, and to practice gratitude. It was a brilliant speech overshadowed by a fabricated and unnecessary controversy. Roughly half of all Americans share Dr. Collier's views on abortion, which she did not address in her speech. As Dr. Vinay Prasad wrote in the blog Common Sense, “I do not share Dr. Collier's faith or her views on abortion. But ultimately, the decision of students to walk out of the lecture because they disagree with the speaker on another topic has no limit.” Collier's colleague, University of Michigan professor Scott Richard Lyons, wrote for Inside Higher Ed, If the academy brooks no dissent, how can knowledge advance? If differing opinions are treated as thought crimes, how much longer will thinkers want to work at our universities? If institutions of higher education do not protect free thought and speech, intellectual diversity, dissent… why should they exist at all? In fact, the University of Michigan's Faculty Handbook states that “expression of diverse points of view is of the highest importance” and should be protected. Of course, most universities and organizations have similar statements but lack the courage to live by them. In contrast, Dr. Collier's courage, grace under pressure, and dedication to professional excellence exemplify what's required in a culture that forgets that free speech in a free society blesses everyone. Her kindness to those who walked out of their own white coat ceremony exemplifies how we must treat everyone, from those who reject that freedom to those still located inside the womb. In that moment, she lived out her advice to not see people as machines but as human beings. Especially for those entering a profession especially prone to cynicism and burnout, her address is worth watching in its entirety. Let's pray there are many among that University of Michigan crowd who follow in Dr. Collier's footsteps.
Dave asks his co-hosts--M2 Maddie, M2 Chirayu, MD/PhD students Aline and Hannah--to discuss the things they would like to change about medicine and medical education, if (when) they could. A study in JAMA Pediatrics finds one reason students of color may drop out of med school: mistreatment. Dave fiddles around with AI text-to-image software. Can his co-hosts guess what the AI was trying to create? We Want to Hear From You: YOUR VOICE MATTERS! No matter where you fall on any spectrum, we want your thoughts on our show.
