PANCE Advice

Tumblr fam, before I spam you with my excitement over officially graduating (🎉), I must ask those of you who took the PANCE in 2019 (or earlier, but it changed this year), if you’ve got any advice.

I did a three day review course through my school last week that I think helped. I’m presently trying to finish the blueprint (going through one to two systems a day pending length) without wasting too much time reviewing stuff I already know, or skipping stuff I shouldn’t. Since my final two rotations were internal med and surgery, I had to do a pretty good review for those EORs. I round out each day of review with 50+ rosh questions on the topic(s) at night and then another round in the AM to see if it stuck. Any other advice?

Majorly freaking out over boards because it’s what I do, but I don’t know how else to prepare 🙃😱

Halfway to becoming a doctor

It is finally winter break and I have some time to relax. I can’t believe that I am halfway to becoming a doctor!! (doesn’t feel like it tho) It is so scary but exciting at the same time. It feels like I just started college and here we are now. ((:

This semester was pretty tough as it was my first clinical year where I had to juggle hospital rotations along with studying for the exams. I actually had such a good time, during parts of the rotations.

I got to see my first proper surgery this semester as well. Thankfully, I didn’t faint or gag during any of my rotations. (as some of my friends had some unpleasant experiences /: ) And now, all I hope for is to have loads of fun and learn alot during the various upcoming rotations. (:

@pointeshoestostethoRegrann from @pointeshoestostethoscopes - Surgery has me spending some more quality time with my buddy Netter! The first week of surgery was very interesting. I was on colorectal service, so I got to scrub in on lots of bowel resections. But also got to sneak into a few vascular cases too! The hours are incredibly long and my body is sore everyday! But thanks to Netter I’m getting through the pimping part! 💉Pro Tip💉 When preparing to scrub in on a surgery it is always good to know the blood and nerve supply to that area! Knowing the layer that are being cut through is also very helpful! Familiarize yourself with the anatomy of the area that will be operated on, as the majority of the pimping questions come from that. Also good to research the disease pathology and presentation so you better understand what is going on.😊 PS: my head is so much smaller than the Netter skull so it looks a little funny haha! #netter #anatomy #humanbody #surgery #surgeryrotation #clinicalyear #rotscopes - Surgery has me spending some more quality time with my buddy Netter!

Happy to be done with week one of anesthesia! And all of my patients did well! After the first day or so I even tried straying from the generic protocol outline to see what results I can get from different drugs/drug combos in my patients. I have to say, after 4 weeks off and 4 weeks on diagnostics, it was nice that I kind of got to ease back into clinics. We got off New Year’s Day and since our surgery services were limited we didn’t get hit hard with cases. I’ll be on call this weekend (Saturday 8p-Sunday 8a and then backup on call Sunday 8a-8p), but with luck I may just get to spend time with my chihuahua . . . . . . . . . . #dogtoremilytobe #vetmed #vetstudent #backtoclinics #clinicalyear #anesthesiology https://www.instagram.com/p/B64LKiJloz8/?igshid=m7bu51wlk3q0

Celebrating this milestone Game of Thrones style: transitioning into our 4th and final year of veterinary school! For the next 54 weeks, we will be experiencing a whole new level of torture. Walking right into the flames of clinical year and hoping to come out on the other side as top notch Veterinarians! Feel free to send well wishes, wine, food, offer to baby sit, or whatever else you have to offer, cause it’s going to be a bumpy ride 🥴😅👏🏽🙏🏽🙃🤗 #gameofthrones #4thyear #senioryear #forthe3rdtime #itsthefinalcountdown #fUTureDoctor #crawlingtothefinishline #clinicalyear #veterinarystudent #letsgetit (at University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine Alumni) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwab_LLFEIT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=noowd20wzbvn

Future things

I have officially accepted a job! I will be doing in patient TPN management and working with the GI group in inpatient. I am super excited, as this will allow me to use my skills as a dietitian, but do quite a bit more. I love inpatient rounding, and I have also requested to get privileged for line placement and NJ tube placement, which sounds like it should work out.

I knew the team before I interviewed, as I used to work in the same department (with about 250 other folks - big hospital), so I am happy that it will be a comfortable place to return to, but will challenge me in all new ways. I’m mildly anxious about my attending, but by the sounds of it I will work mostly with the fellows which should be wonderful.

In 6 weeks, I will return to my favorite city, and move in to the cutest duplex with the best dog around. While I was on rotation last month, I was able to go check out a place and signed a lease! It’s less than half a mile walk from my favorite spin studio, and a boxing gym that I will learn to love, as well as my fave coffee shop, great restaurants, and the popular place to go in the city for going out. It has the world’s smallest back yard, but big enough for a patio table and chairs, and a little bit of grass for my sweet pup, all enclosed by a privacy fence. It is literally surrounded by schools and a huge park, which, when I checked it out while I was there was filled with kiddos and dogs and looked to be a perfect place to take the Bean bag on long walks. In six weeks, I can unpack after a year’s worth of traveling month to month to rotation sites. I’ll begin receiving a paycheck for the first time in 28 months. I will have a home, and stability, and the opportunity to do the things that make me happy again (other than school... which did make me happy, but caused me to sacrifice a lot of “my” time).

Of course, I must pass my final EOR, summative, and capstone before all of that. And my boards, but that is neither here nor there. The end of this very long journey is in site, and I am so grateful for that.

It can be hard to tell by just looking – unless you know what you are looking for.

Clinicals

As some of you know I will get placed at another veterinary school for my clinical year because Ross doesn't have the facilities for clinics and the island isn't able to provide us with what we need to be learning so that we can be ready to practice after graduating. I had a meeting with the staff member who places us today and i’m 95% sure I will be in Dublin Ireland for my clinical year starting in May! I’m so excited to start this next chapter of my life. 5 more months left on the island for me :)
