Happy Doctor's Day!

Sometimes, it's good to just to remember why we do what we do.  Beyond the daily grind, uncertain short term professional outlook (in Ontario), and sudden jolts of gut wrenching stress it is still a exciting, often joyful challenge and always a privilege to work in medicine.

This link is to the OMA's Ontario's Doctors site which is set up to celebrate Doctor's Day this year.

I like the hashtag for this year.  #DocsRock

I hope our PGY2 QBOL residents are "rocking" their licensing exams this week.

Plans for the Summer of 2015?

I am still trying to decide what to do with this blog.   I don't know if annually showing photos of the Toolbox activities, simulation labs, etc. every year is the best use of this space.  If you have any suggestions, please do leave a comment or contact me.

Rest assured, the QBOL site is doing well.   There is a lot of activity as our second years prepare their research posters and presentations and then prepare to face their exam. 

We have had great interest in our site during this year's CaRMS process and it is always a true pleasure to meet so many future colleagues through our information sessions and interviews.

Here is something different which is happening in our area this summer: the Pan Am Games.  This link is a request for volunteers for the games if you should happen to be in the area this summer.
