Galen's Internal Medicine Intern Survival Guide - Paperback

by Benjamin T. Galen MD (Author)

Internship is a challenging time because brand new doctors are charged with learning as much as they can, but are also hospital employees with a job to perform. This guide will help an intern navigate the rocky waters of internship, whether she plans to remain in internal medicine residency or to matriculate to another field such as dermatology, neurology, anesthesiology, or radiology. This guide is not a practical how-to, as a residency program should provide such support. It is, however, intended to help interns maneuver the pitfalls of the workplace, master interpersonal interactions, and utilize the best tools and practices.
