The doctor is in!

A big day for me - after nearly three weeks of orientation I not only saw my first patients as a physician, but collected my first paycheck as one as well!

Monday I start my first official resident rotation with a 24 hour shift on OB!!

Great to hear Dr.Uncle Yuan; congrats are certainly due and freely given here but seriously, a 24 hour shift!? Ouch - I hope you get some proper time off to recover afterwards!

Dude! Awesome news!

Um, so can we start requesting free medical advice and then sue you when you incorrectly tell us what's wrong based on our vague and erratic descriptions?

Huh? Can we?

Does this look infected to you?

Day or night he'll be there anytime at all Dr. Yuan."

Congratulations :)

Doctor Yuan... it does have a certain ring to it. :)

Congrats! May you have much patience with your patients. :D

Bah. He probably saw way worse during his overseas stint.

This is very good. Now we can refer to him as DUY.

(Not pronounced DOO-ee, but Dee-You-Why... say that three times fast and see what it sounds like) :D

Congratulations! Now you have no time to "sleep it off".

should he change his name to Dr. Yuan?

I vote "Dr. Uncle Yuan"

Congratz, UY. I, along with the rest of us, have been following your medical school progress for..well, years now.

:)

Duh Duh Duh, the Doctor is here!

On a completely unrelated note - my godmother's brother is a Jesuit priest named Robert who holds a Ph.D in psycology. My godmother's children refer to him as Uncle Father Doctor Brother Bob.
