About This Podcast
Sometimes being an OBGYN can be really hard. But, if you don't laugh about certain things, you'll cry.
That's how I feel about residency. Man, was it tough, but the memories and camaraderie i had with my fellow trainees help me cope with past and present. We have so many stories to tell that seem to resonate with junior and senior OBGYN's alike, no matter where one practices OBGYN. One thing's for sure, most TV shows can't capture one molecule of how intense or insane it can be at times.
Together, with my old residency classmates and colleagues, we will share crazy scenarios as well as our own mistakes, which helped us find our way to becoming excellent and successful physicians and surgeons.
I have 15+ years of experience and I would like to share my pearls of wisdom with you.
