Family Medicine – Day 17

Days with this attending are always kinda chill. He picks out patients for me to see beforehand so I know what’s coming up, there’s space between patients, and I don’t have to frantically look at 4 different charts not knowing which one I’m going to end up seeing. That said, I did have to a rectal exam for a patient with some abdominal pain and rectal fullness. Not sure if my attending had planned for that. Then I did kinda your standard diabetes/ hypertension/ high cholesterol patient. And then a 9-day-old newborn weight and color check. Some good variety.
