Is it true that in certain hospitals, the loans for Family pracitioners are paid off? DOes anyone know how this works? also, i was talking to a 3rd year IM resident; he said that many attendings work "7 on and 7 off". Contracts in some places in the US pay over $200,000/yr. What about during the other 7 days? Can u work the other week and double ur income? thanks ]]> AUC Med School Clinicals ag8416 http://www.valuemd.com/auc-med-school-clinicals/187086-fp-pays-student-loans.html http://www.valuemd.com/auc-med-school-clinicals/186981-thank-yous-email-vs-handwritten.html Sun, 15 Nov 2009 16:58:28 GMT

After the interview "Thank You's":

These days I would think an email to be appropriate enough, plus it kind of opens the door for two-way communication if warranted.

But on the other hand I could see how a handwritten 'thank you,' would be more formal and appropriate as well...

What is everyone's opinion? If there are any attendings or PD's out there, please weigh in. ]]> AUC Med School Clinicals nl9569 http://www.valuemd.com/auc-med-school-clinicals/186981-thank-yous-email-vs-handwritten.html http://www.valuemd.com/auc-med-school-clinicals/186826-flushing-housing-help.html Thu, 12 Nov 2009 23:30:28 GMT Anybody know anyone renting or subleasing a place in Fushing for Jan/Fab?

hi everyone,

I am writing to let you know that there is an apartment in a house for rent in the long island area. This apt. is literally 2mins away from the hospital by car and about 15mins away walking. it's ideally located near several grocery stores, walmart etc.

its a two room apt in a house, one room is a bedroom with some furniture provided and a twin bed, and the other room has a refrigerator, kitchen sink, microwave, toaster oven. there is plenty of space in both rooms and combined the two rooms provide more than enough space for a single person.

the only drawback is that there is no oven/stove, and laundry has to be done at the local laundromat there are two that are close by.

rent is around $800 / month

the room will become vacated by december 2-4 and available for moving in there after.

the contact person is Gerry cell# 516-729-2544, house# 516-883-7428 ]]> AUC Med School Clinicals pk999 http://www.valuemd.com/auc-med-school-clinicals/186732-apartment-rent-long-island.html http://www.valuemd.com/auc-med-school-clinicals/186453-any-students-rotating-waterford-ireland.html Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:55:49 GMT I am currently a 4th semester on SXM and I am very interested in doing all of my core clinical rotations in Waterford.
