Wind of change

Hope you guys back in the mainland had a happy easter!

Seems that things are about to change around here - tomorrow half my team will change, we'll get a new resident and a new attending. I'm a little worried - according to Jenn, rounds will be significantly longer under the new reign. We'll see.

Right now I'm up in the residents' lounge waiting for my beeper to tell me to quickly go see a patient before rounds at ten today. Our attending is flying to Florida to give some speeches for the National Kidney Foundation at 1:30pm. So he wants to be out the door at noon sharp. That means we'll round with him at 10am instead of the normal 1pm. Unfortunately, calls for consults usually trickle in at around 9-9:30am, which will not leave us a lot of time to see the new patients before rounds. Actually around half an hour instead of three and a half. I'm afraid that won't work unless we're really lucky and get no more than one patient each.

Speaking of which, I should finish checking up on my old patients before I get a new one. Blog to you later!
