We can hitch a ride to rockaway beach...
Isn't that how the song goes?
Well, I definitely wanna hitch that ride. Not just to the place, but to the time. When I'd go to Rockaway to stay with my grandma for the summer. My friend Marina would come by and we'd go to the beach. Take a watermelon with us--our only food for the day. And we would meet the Polish chicks and just hang out on the beach all day, body-surf and pick up guys. Then make plans to meet up the next day and never see those guys again :)
Now, beach is not so much fun. Maybe because I am on Brighton. With the only guys around me being my six year old and my four year old.
-Mooom!!! Daniel is throwing sand at my face!
-Mom!!! Stanley threw my hat in the water!!!
-Mom!!! There is sand in my eyes!
-Mom!! I wanna drink, pee, eat...
Sigh.

One of the main differences between Russian and non-Russian patients is their attitudes about antibiotics. Russians for some reason generally tend to be deathly afraid of them. I have even tried not to use "the a word" around Russians at all, because it sends them into a frenzy: "antibiotics! You think it is THAT serious?"
I am actually middle of the road concerning treatment, i am willing to give the body a trial period to conquer the illness by itself and then start antibiotics, and of course it depends what kind of disease it is.
Non-Russians (and i say this because i see mostly Hispanics and Chinese patients at the clinic) are the complete opposite. They want antibiotics, and they want them now. I have to fight different battles with them, that really if you have a runny nose and sore throat for one day its most likely a virus and you do not need an antibiotic...
But i am getting tired of trying to prove stuff to everyone. Wonder how long it will be before i get to be a burned out doc who just says whatever and gives everyone what they ask :)

Сижу на лекции по дерматологии. Кому что, а мне нравится слушать про лечение гиперпигментации кожи и оникоррексиса. Показыают слайдики такие: грибок на ногтях, бородавки, сиськи, экзема, родинки...эй, стоп. Что это они между экземой и бородавками показали?
А вообще теломеры надо удлинять, господа, теломеры!!!
И еще меня поразила натуральная гормонотерапия... На лекции все же надо ходить, потому что рутина засасывает. Когда сидишь и изо дня в день пишешь справки и выписываешь мазь от геморроя, перестаешь ощущать себя врачом. А сходишь на лекцию, послушаешь--наука все-таки движется вперед.
