Almost one week down...

It's Thursday night and I'm pooped! This is the first week of my Oral Surgery rotation, and I've been on hospital assignment for the last two days. Yesterday and today I had to be at the hospital at 6:30 am for rounds, and I have to be there again tomorrow morning for rounds. That's early! Yesterday I was there till 5pm and today I was there till almost 6pm. I've gotten to observe alot and assist some too - today I scrubbed in on our afternoon surgery which was pretty cool but tiring! On Tuesday I saw my first oral surg. patient - I was scheduled for a pt. with 5 teeth that needed to be pulled but he rescheduled, so I was reassigned an emergency case that came in. That pt. had a swelling and a broken down tooth, so I just pulled that tooth. It went really well and I learned a lot. I'll be a lot more confident this next week when I see more patients.
Anyway, I am happy to be home for the evening! I have some pictures from the I-MOM weekend I want to post, but I can't find the camera cord right now...
Hope you have a great weekend!
