    Is it possible to be a female surgeon and still have/raise a family?

    Wow ! :eek: You're not too bright, are ya Mike? Posters are agreeing with doctor girl's quote about how in the last half Century, the job market is different. And the posters are contrasting that statement (in the second half of ineedadvice's message) with your ******* quote (in the first...

    Loyola vs Georgetown

    Are you serious? I never even heard of Duke until they started winning b-ball games. Duke's well-thought of in their region and they're definitely a great medical school with a national medical reputation, but their undergraduate school is thought of as a b-ball school. Sorry, but that's...

    17-year-old girl organ transplant survey

    And for good reason. This is the kind of stuff that science fiction writers love. Ever see the movie, "Coma" ? I think doctors are going to run into a backlash from the public if they are perceived as wanting to harvest organs from someone who they regard as being closer to death than...

    17-year-old girl organ transplant survey

    This is so horrible! They're showing a still photo of the little girl lying in bed, looking lifeless, with her mother hovering over her with an anguished look on her face. :( In fact, it came out in the news only after she was declared brain dead that the blood stopped going to her brain...

    17-Year-Old Girl Given Organs With Wrong Blood Type

    I'm praying for this girl everyday. I hope some organs become available soon and she can pull through. I can't imagine what her family is going through right now. :( Thewonderer- I'm afraid you're right. Duke f#cked up and will probably pay some kind of compensation to this poor family (as...

    What medical schools are considered top tier?

    This really is an opinion thing. I wouldn't call UCSF or Duke or Wash U top tier based on reputation. I'd call them top tier based on rank. Most people haven't even heard of Wash U and regard Duke as a basketball school and don't know the difference between UCSF and any of the other UC's...

    I can hear dumbest premed's reply now: "Well, he's not exactly a friend; he's more like an acquaintance. And yes, I am a little like my name." :laugh: :laugh:

    whats the deal with georgetown, good or bad??

    The avg gpa of their students is even more impressive. And their name recognition isn't just "good". It's one of the best in the country. Regarding as to their financial trouble. A lot of schools get into this. Ever heard of MCP ? Oh no. It's called Hahnemman. Ever heard of that...
