Matters of the Heart

Jordan just finished his Cardiology month and he's moving on up.....to Radiology!

I think Jordan enjoyed some aspects of the month more than others

  • Jordan did have weekends off and no call-Major perk of an elective!
  • He learned a lot about basic cardiology
  • Worked with a nice Doctor, big deal since you spend every minute with them
  • "Played" in the Cath lab which I think is the main reason Jordan wanted to do Cardiology in the first place, he was able to feed the catheter from the Femoral Vein up to the Heart....very cool!
Of course, I think it also reminded Jordan of medical school and being a little bit of a shadow instead of getting to do more on his own....not a great feeling for someone with a Type A personality. All in all though, one more month down.....

Radiology should be lots of fun for him....especially since that's what he wants to do! Of course he's going to be more serious this month! He's already reading material and he hasn't even started yet! Yikes!
