On 9/6/17 I met Mr. Reid at the office of Dr. Rampersaud. I have printed and provided Mr. Reid the information on how and where to get medications filled along with a form for him to fill out for reimbursement of prior out of pocket expenses. I also provided Dr. Rampersaud with a letter with requirements and instructions on filling medications. I met Mr. and Mrs. Reid at the appointment with Dr. Rampersaud.…
I never was the most confident person when it came to competing. I always felt discouraged because I “knew” there would be people better than me. Towards the end of my junior year in high school a special program was announced to the students. “Doc Prep” was a weeklong trip to Baylor College of Medicine that gave ten students the opportunity to witness heart surgeries, practice suturing, handle human brains, and meet many interesting people. Who wouldn’t want to be part of this enriching experience?…
I have seen more doctors than I can count on my fingers due to my asthma acting up every now and then and at times with bad allergic reactions. However there was one doctor that has always been there for my parents and I. He of course may not be world famous yet, but to me he is the best I have ever met. I’ve known him since I was in elementary school and I still continue to see him from time to time but since he is a doctor it isn’t as often.…
I shadowed Dr. McAlhaney, who owns her own family practice, during the Fridays I had available during my summer classes. This practice is located in my small, rural hometown that currently lacks a hospital, and as a result, has a very limited number of physicians. The nearest hospital is over 30 minutes away. Over my time shadowing here, I saw over 60 patients with a variety of health conditions. I would arrive early in the morning and leave near 6 p.m. at night.…
It has come to my attention that my daughter, Samantha Altidor had a meeting with Dr. Banks earlier this week to confirm her to graduate early as you had informed her to do. However I do not understand why Dr. Banks had told her that she needed a 3.6 GPA to qualify to graduate early, when in the 2017-2018 Inlet Grove Handbook states that she only needs a 3.2. Which she has. I do not think it was right that Dr. Banks had informed her she needed a 3.6 GPA now. If it was already written down in handbook for this school year then it wouldn’t be fair to change it now especially since my daughter had began speaking to you about this from the beginning of the school year and you had not mentioned she needed a 3.6 GPA once.…
When I view the world around me, I see darkness. I see broken people with hurting hearts hurting others. What I also see are Christians. Christians everywhere who are doing nothing to love and help the pained individuals surrounding them, while doing everything to promote prosperity in their own lives. Of course, not every Christian is like that, as I am not one of those Christians.…
I was, somewhat, awake at 7am, relying on recently chugged black coffee to instill in me some sense of alertness. My short frame, donning a scrub, fell next to much taller Dr. Fritz, a thoracic surgeon at Gwinnett Medical Center. Once Dr. Fritz’s I.D. met the door scanner, a bustling energy swirled around me. Nurses spoke to one another succinctly. Doctors reviewed patient records and xrays.…
When it came to who I would interview, I searched for someone who has actively made an impact on my life, and in turn also impacted all those that attend Health Sciences High middle college. As the chief Education Officer and President of our school, he whom I interviewed is a man of many qualities. As said by himself, “I have many labels that describe me and who I am and my culture, but first and foremost I identify as a member of the human race and a Pumpian.” If you couldn’t tell already Dr. Pumpian can be a comedian, but he is also a dedicated educator. At a young age he already knew that he liked being with and working with people, something that helped kickstart his passion to open a school.…
Just one BAM, and he was laid out on the floor of the Y.M.C.A. As Tray lied there crying , I was being hauled away by three camp instructors. It was late afternoon when it all started. When I woke up that morning, I didn't expect anything to go wrong. I had a normal school day, nothing unusual. After school I got dropped off at the Y.M.C.A, like normal.…
I was getting ready for a date with Mettaton. It was our second time going out to our favorite restaurant, MTT Resort, mainly because Mettaton owned it and we get free food. I put on my favorite bow tie and suit, and was about ready to go out, but Sans stopped me. " Are you really going out on another, dare I say, date, with Mettaton?"…
The doctor is already complaining that the messages haven't been checked after lunch yesterday. See, the problem is he refuses to hire another person to be our receptionist. That's right, we have to not only see patients, but check them out, and make their next appointment. When I come in, in the morning I check the messages, call the patients for the next day, pull the charts for the patients we are seeing that day, and print the sheets that go on the top of their charts.…
To complete this paper, I had the honor of interviewing Dr. Wheaton. She is a pediatric physician at Kaiser Permanente in Hayward. I have always wanted to be a physician and since I love working with kids, I thought interviewing a pediatric physician would be very beneficial because it would give me a lot of insight on a career that I might pursue in the future. Since I volunteer at a hospital, I asked my supervisor if she knows a doctor who would give me few hours of his/her time. She gave me five names…
9th January My first day at the pathological institute was on Monday, the 9th of January. Lena Stang, my supervisor during my time there, told me to arrive at 8 o’ clock in the morning at the main laboratory. My way to the Pathological institute was quite long as I stayed in Weinheim, with around 50 minutes of taking the tram. Because of that I had to wake up at 6’o clock in the morning so that I would be there at quarter to 8 o’ clock.…
The sickness that I live with is one that some would find excessively appalling, making it impossible to talk about; so I kept it to a whisper. This sickness I thought was to embarrassing to talk about, making it impossible to seek help, left me feeling alone in the dark. This sickness ruined friendships, without me realizing it. This sickness that made getting out of bed a struggle for me. This sickness made it impossible for me to see a positive future, until the day I stopped calling myself “crazy” and began to grow from what we all call, depression.…
For the first week, I simply took on the role of observing my field instructor, Angie. I watched the step-by-step method for how to prepare for consults with patients. Prior to meeting with the patients, Angie gets basic information from their hospital record on the computer. She looks up information regarding where they live, their type of cancer, and looks at the needs assessment patients complete prior to the consult. When meeting with patients and their family members, I got to observe the interviewing process.…
