Med Advice

D. Whitaker. He/Him. 27. MD. † Personal blog/ Med work upkeep!

Okay, so, hey!

I’m Dennis. A lot of people just call me Whitaker, though. Comes with the job, and all that. (Dr, now, which is cool.) I saw a few people doing this, so I thought I might too? Luckily none of my coworkers are on here, so that shouldn’t be, yknow, a thing.

This is mostly just a personal blog. Or I guess I’m open to answering some questions too. Like, surface level medical stuff! I mean you should always go to an ER if it’s an emergency but I can answer basic questions with relative certainty.

No longer a med student! I work the morning shift in rotation doing emergency medicine, at PMTC.

I’m not sure what else I should put here! I’m from Broken bow, NE. I grew up on a farm. I’ll occasionally post about that.

That’s all I guess. Feel free to ask, like, questions if you want! I’m here to help.

I probably won’t be around till later in the night, as I do work most of the day. But yeah!

Thanks for reading if anyone does.

I’m not having a great day. I just have to make it to 7.

do you want some coffee, dude?

I actually would, yeah. You’ll have to forgive me in advance, though. I’m not a typical coffee drinker.

you sound like your sending a formal email... this is tumblr, dude. relax. i dont mind.

im doing errands right now so I can like drop by in like 5 minutes. what kind of coffee do you want?

I’m sorry, I’m a bit work brained 😅 long day. Ummm, you know, you’re the seasoned one here. Whatever you think would be good for me! I can definitely pay you back whatever the $ is.

Anonymous asked:

i don’t think it’s legal to fire you based on having a complicated relationship with religion, but i do understand wanting to keep that away from the prying eyes of coworkers LOL - b

I’m just anxious 😅 I worked really hard to be where I am and, it’s just, I would hate for THAT to be the reason I’m made to take leave, or something.

(Also! Getting to your other ask. I appreciate when you weigh in on some of my struggles. Feels less alone.)

Dennis, if you ever need to talk about anything , please reach out!

keeping it all in is a very unhealthy coping mechanism and will only make yourself worse

I appreciate it! I just, you know, I really love my job. And my personal struggles don’t interfere with it, but I’d hate for something I say to become an interference. I talk to Santos sometimes about the things. I try not to keep it all in. And I write about it to get it all out when I can.

Thank you, though! Again, I really appreciate it, and, you know, will keep it in mind.

I feel like there are maybe too many of my coworkers and colleagues here for me to. Say whatever’s on my mind. Because I know objectively I have some worrying stuff to say but like I’m fine! Like I’ll be all I’m terrified of God in a legitimate and honest way and next thing I know I’ll have a meeting with HR where they’ll fire me on the spot for having a complicated relationship with religion. So. Sucks to suck, I guess.
