An observation

I call that Shrinkiport because that's where DD always gets caught in a storm coming into sowal. 😱

Congrats Skunky. I had to drop out of med school cause it was interfering with law school. :lie:

No kiddin!! :blink:

It is a countdown until the education and training that began in July 1999 (or actually August of 1971 if we include all the pre-med stuff) is finally complete.

:cool: What will the Doctor of Skunks' specialty be? Hopefully, geriatrics so when we all retire down to sowal all us old sowal'ers can be among his most specialist patients. 😀 That is a lotta hard work .:clap:WTG, ya'll!!! ...was wonderin' what the countdown was until .:scratch: Thanks for the 411, gull. :cool:

This is the other way of looking at it...

It is 2884 days, 18 hours, 54 minutes and 35 seconds since Monday, July 12, 1999 at 8:00:00 AM

Wow, we knew he was dedicated, funny and smart but jeesh, if you really think about it. :yikes: :bow: :bow: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I can forsee a funn scenario when I tell my kids we are going to see "Dr. Skunky." I hope you do realize, Dr. Skunky, that your real name is going to mean nothing in SoWal. :floor:

He actually did a double residency -- internal medicine and pediatrics.

I can foresee a scenario where people call the office and want to make and appointment with Dr. Skunky. The poor receptionists will be trying figure out which doctor smells the worst.

I'd love a GP near 30-A! Has he said if he's doing peds or general practice?

For all the extra time and effort spent, I hope he'll do both. His reasoning in doing a internal medicine and pediatrics combined residency was that he really likes kids, but also wants to have the challenge of more complex patients that require an internist. I think he is hoping for a mix of patients, but since he's the first med/peds physician in the area it will be a challenge for him to explain that he is highly capable of managing a patient in a NICU or an 80 year old with diabetes, COPD, and BP issues.

:rolling:

yay! can't wait til you guys are finally settled in your sowal life.:wave:

We need to go through a little retraining around here for when Skunky officially becomes the kids' Doc. I don't think they should run through the office yelling "Hey Dr. Skunky! Pull my finger! Will you draw a tattoo on me? Why do you have to work- I want to go fishing!! etc ect." They are going to have to learn about the professional Dr. Skunky and the playtime Dr. Skunky.

I guess those rules will have to apply to me as well!:floor: :(

we have a dr here who does this exact thing, he has both adult and peds pts and everybody loves him.

I am thinking that law school is the next logical step, actually:lie:
