An open letter from an IMG Chief Resident: people on the outside don’t really understand what it means to be a chief. Most people outside medicine assume it’s a status symbol. But it’s not quite that. Being Chief Resident is an honor, yes—but it’s more responsibility added on top of residency (which is already intense). The chief is a bridge between residents and attendings. You’re often the person who helps resolve conflict, organizes schedules, and keeps the program running smoothly. You have to think about what’s best for the program as a whole—while actively trying to minimize bias. You have to be fair (and wow, is that hard in today’s world). You have to be the link. You have to be firm. You have to be a safe place. You have to be steady. It’s an honor because being invited is the program saying: we trust you—for a job that isn’t easy—and we believe you’ll do it well. Most chiefs I know were happy when they were asked… and even happier when their “reign” ended. That tells you a lot about the weight of the role. And every program is different. In some places, the chief year is the final year of residency. In others, there’s an additional paid year to serve as chief. Some programs split chief responsibilities across several areas and appoint multiple residents to different roles. In my first residency in Brazil, I really wanted to be “chief”—and I wasn’t chosen. I was disappointed. But today I can see how every step brought me here. That closed door was essential for my move to the U.S. with Leo and for everything I’ve built since. And now—married, a mom of three, and still accepting to be chief? Yep. Because it’s truly an honor to support the program that welcomed me with so much kindness—one that believed in me when I felt like “nobody,” just an older IMG with a dream. And let’s be honest: if you’re a mom… not much in life feels too complicated anymore. 😉 Here’s to the next four months—full of growth, hard lessons, meaningful wins, and a lot of learning for me… and for you who follow along here.

Morning rounds with the chief resident, the interns, and that one medical student who asks questions that turn a 5-minute case into a 45-minute lecture. #teachinghospital #trending #podiatry #medical #podiatrylife

Day in the life - trauma surgery intern on 24 hour call 😷🚑🚨🏥 Every call day is VERY unpredictable & each one is different, but to give you a glimpse of what it can look like here’s a bit of what we do. 4am: wake up and get ready 5am: get to hospital to chart check/pre-round on patients 6am: round with co-intern/chief resident 7am: trauma sign out - discuss patients who came in over the last 24 hours as trauma activations and consults. 8am - 2pm??: either round with the attending, go to the operating room if there are surgeries, do floor work like change dressings or remove chest tubes, put in orders, call consults, or write notes. This varies greatly based on what’s happening that day. *7am - 7am (aka throughout the whole call shift)*: get calls for trauma activations, consults, and management of floor patients. 📟 We attend all trauma activations, write notes, put in orders, call consults (e.g. ortho, plastics, neurosurgery), and admit patients. For consults, we usually see them and present them to our chief or we’ll go see them together especially if it’s urgent. Lastly, for managing floor patients, we will get calls for a wide range of things such as renewing pain medications to a patient having severe abdominal pain and is vomiting. 👨‍⚕️🩻 It’s a balancing act - to manage all the different ongoing tasks, making sure we’re prioritizing things appropriately, and communicating well with other teams (while trying to stay awake if you’re up all night 😴). Leave a 🙌 below if you found this information helpful! ⭐️ P.S. My pink clogs are @calzuro. Use my code LILY15 for 15% off your order! #residency #medschool #doctor #resident #medstudent #premed

The role of chief resident? Translating what the attendings said into English and what the interns said into something attendings won’t yell at. #residencylife #doctorlife #obgynresident #healthcarehumor

Hello everyone! I’m Dr. Omar Rahman, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in the operative and non-operative management of sports injuries, musculoskeletal issues, and arthritis.

I then completed a fellowship in sports medicine and shoulder surgery at the world-renowned Cedars-Sinai Kerlan-Jobe Institute in Los Angeles. I’m excited to share this space with you as I practice across multiple locations around Los Angeles, helping individuals regain mobility and enhance their quality of life.

No it’s not luck, it’s hard work. I have put in THOUSANDS of hours to get to where I am today. And yes I am grateful for the opportunities that have been given to me. And yes I will forever be indebted to my family for sacrificing so much as immigrants to give me an education. And yes I am thankful to live in a safe place where education is readily available. But all that aside, becoming a doctor requires endless dedication, motivation, commitment and passion. I got here after putting in hours and hours. It started with volunteer hours as a college student, ended with on call hours as a chief resident in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. Those hours all mattered. So make those hours count. When you’re putting in hours at the start of your career, ensure they are quality clinical hours. A great way to do this is through @healthcareercerts which allows you to become certified through their numerous online programs. The beauty of it, you can do it at your own pace. Save yourself time, get yourself started with a career in healthcare. #healthcareercertspartner #healthcareercerts #womeninspiringwomen #womeninmedicine #doctor
