All Things Neurologic

So my new rotation now is Neurology and I am loving it. I always found the subject fascinating and getting to put together pieces of a puzzle to solve a patient's problem is very interesting. Tomorrow I get to scrub in on a surgery to remove two herniated discs from a Jack Russell's back. Not your everyday run of the mill surgery in private practice. And Dr. da Costa has kept us students on our toes, firing questions at us and probing the depths of our knowledge. Some days my brain feels more like a kiddy pool than the ocean that they expect from us. But we learn new things every day and hopefully things stick long enough for us to put them into practice after graduation.
