First day on peds

My first day on peds wasn't too bad. I got to the hospital about 6:45, received night report from the on-call resident and it turned out I only had two patients to round on - a peritonsillar abscess and a pneumonia. Dictated one heck of a rough discharge summary on the peritonsillar kid, kept the pneumonia for one more day. Read for about 90 minutes, did chest x-ray rounds with the medicine team and went home about 2:30 PM. Not too bad. All that will change though when I have peds again in November and they're full to the gills. I'd better enjoy it while it lasts.
