In the medical world July 1 is an exciting time, all over the country medical students are starting school and new residents are eagerly/anxiously awaiting the first time that they will introduce themselves as doctor. With all these fresh faces, however, it means that many residents are saying goodbye to residency and starting a whole new adventure as attendings. Though there are many people we will miss, this week we said goodbye to three good friends. Dennis and Davette (pictured here and throughout the blog) left Monday morning to return to Wyoming. They have been great friends and we will miss their company. We are definitely looking forward to visiting them in their native state where there are apparently many chickens?! I am sure Davette will be back here to utilize their vacation home (unfortunately they haven't sold their home in Milwaukee just yet) and to prowl the malls with me.
Larissa is a peds graduate that is starting a new chapter in her life in Waterville, Maine. I think she was trying to get as far away from Milwaukee as possible while keeping in the same climate... to each their own! All I know is that town is sure lucky to have such a caring and brilliant pediatrician. I have also never been to Maine... maybe during the summer I can visit!
Let us not forget the hellos that we have to say! Hello to the new pediatric intern class! Do not worry, your seniors (yep, I am one of them already) are here to help you... even if it is just asking the dose of Tylenol. We are also looking forward to Ari's new crew at St. Joe's.
