Doctah-ing it Up: A Guide for Adapting to the Culture of Medicine in Your First Year of Medical School (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578994468)

It's you being a student doctah for me.

I get it, you're anxious because you're starting med school soon, and based on the med influencers, vlogs, and blogs you've seen and read, you're screwed.

FALSE.

Beloved, take a deep breath. No need to be afraid because I was just in your shoes, and I survived. A little battered and bruised, but I'm here. Throughout my first year of med school, I struggled to learn a bunch of things I wish I knew before starting my journey. And now, I get to use these gems to help guide you through your first year.

Your transition into physicianhood doesn't have to be this period of mourning your glory days in undergrad, the sleep you used to get, or the fun you used to have. It can be an enjoyable chapter if you shift your focus from just being super smart to being as authentically whole as you can be.

Candid and practical, Doctah-ing It Up is the tea on the academic transition, lifestyle changes, professional challenges, and growing pains that first-year medical students experience. This guide provides strategies and resources to help prepare students for fulfilling medical careers.

Alright, tip number one: med students don't have time to leisurely read back covers. So flip it over and start reading!
