I'm aiming for EM and I used to work at a level 1 peds ER. I have heard some astonishingly stupid things and fully expect to hear more.

I'm putting in my rank list for EM right now. Some people certainly have some...peculiar...ideas about health and healthcare.

It's awesome that you're already setting some stuff up. Feel free to DM me if you've got any questions!
