Today Experience in Clinic

Today went by fast, because I was there for only a half of a day. It was my first visit to the obstetrician. Everything went well, but it took a while to get out of the doctors office. I rushed to school on time, but I did feel a little rushed to get things ready. Unfortunately, I was given a class 1B patent, which I did not need. I feel like I did a pretty good job though, as there were no calculus remaining after I was finished. I was also able to take bwx's on this patent for the radio graph requirement. Now I only have 2 more sets left! :) I was excited that I finished this patent in time, as I got a late start. Things are moving along fairly well, but I also feel like I may need a couple of extra days to get my requirements accomplished. Hopefully I will tackle some class 2, 3, and 4 patents at the VA. I am also preparing myself for the boards. Its a bit overwhelming at times, but I know if I just take it day by day and bit by bit, I will come out on top. :)

A Better Day Today:)

Today was a better day for me because my patient came in the morning for me, but unfortunately my patient that I had for the afternoon had to leave early. She was a new patient and had a long health history to go over so the only thing that I was able to do was to start on her full set of x-rays, but I was only able to take four BWX's. I am hoping that when she comes back that she classifies as a three or two because I need those requirements. Also when she comes back I need to do two retakes on her set of BWX's.

First day back in clinic:(

First day back in clinic my patient that I had scheduled for the morning session wasn't able too keep her appointment. Apparently on her way here she fell and fractured her arm and then the next I hear Mrs. Campbell tells me that my afternoon patient has cancelled. I tried calling people off the resource list, but wasn't able to have anybody come in due to the weather we had today:( Jen gave me a phone number of a patient that wanted to get in earlier, but I wasn't able to get a hold of him so I left a message on his voicemail. Also Megan gave me a number for a patient to call and I left a message for him also to see if on last minute he could come in today. My sister was my back-up plan, but unfortunately she couldn't come in because she is working. This wasn't how I wanted to start the first day back in clinic:(
