Family Medicine – Day 14

Today was pretty standard. Actually there was a lot cancellations this morning so the morning went by kinda slow. I’m definitely getting better at presenting my assessment and plan without disclaimers or questions and just going for it. Sometimes though I think about how this confidence is interpreted by my attendings. Do I look even dumber because I’m saying something wrong with confidence? Even if they know that I’m unsure despite the confidence I am trying to project and say it’s ok for me to be wrong, I can’t help but feel like deep down it influences their perception of me. Though I guess the obvious solution to this is not being wrong.
