Another Look at New Orleans
I posted about New Orleans here and here.

Take a look at what Hurricane Jill, a medical student at Tulane, has to say about the healthcare conditions and needs down there, then ponder on what a positive spin some people, who shall remain unnamed (the shrubs and their cohorts), continue to try and make of it.

    One of my friends will start her training down in New Orleans for family medicine.
    When I pass these exams, I think I may follow suit. I think we need to rebuild the city and we can start by offering it's citizens good healthcare.

    That's wonderful Angel, Jr. We definitely need more GPs, especially there and in rural areas.

    Good luck to your friend (residency or practice) and to your on your exams as well. :-)

    I meant to ask but didn't want to double post: have you and your fellow gym attendees had a get-together outside yet? :-)
