DDS

we must be getting desperate for residents to fill the trauma team month after month, because it's april and we've got us a DDS.

really?  sir, you are a dentist.  what are you doing here?  i have the utmost respect for your profession, and see my dentist on the regular (shout out to dr. p!!), but why?  just why?

i assume this is because you want some oral surgery experience?  perhaps you should have been placed on the oral surgery team then, hmm?  i mean really, can i even take orders from you?  i spend many a day wondering if the residents i come in contact with did indeed graduate from medical school.  you did not even GO to medical school.

it's no wonder that you wrote that order for fluids to be D5.45 half normal saline with 60 mEq of K+.  first of all, the .45 is the half normal saline, and secondly giving 60 of K bolus is something akin to lethal injection, or at the very least a very bad idea.

i'm sure you're going to be a very nice dentist, because you have pretty eyes to look into and you're personable enough to chat with, but you have no business managing trauma patients.  i am, in fact, scared of you and your cohorts, seeing as how this month we got some of "not the brightest crayons in the box" so to speak.  between you and your pal who likes to try to kill dialysis patients, its been a long few weeks.

seriously, is it may yet?
