Medical blog, incredible read
Jan. 16th, 2007 08:23 pmI really don't know what to make of this. The posts in it are filled with so much drama, humour, intrigue and irony that only one of the following can be true:
1) this guy has the most interesting Emergency Medical job ever.
2) all Emergency doctors do this sort of thing, it's just he writes detailed if identity-protected posts about it and has a humorously scathing attitude toward certain patients.
3) It's all a work of medically-accurate fiction with no relationship to real cases at all that's a great read nonetheless.
Whatever the answer is, it's a really good read for a blog. I guess the best tagline I can come up with is that this is "House: The Blog" - read it here: Fingers and Tubes in Every Orifice
