Shanny, DO

The experience of a doctor during her residency, discussing timely topics regarding medicine, prevention, and self-care. An expression of personal struggle, growth and accomplishment with a splash of humor and advocacy for others along the way <3

When you come back from vacation and the nerd whisperer brings you a new set of text books and the April Red journal, with a nice little figurative bow and a card that says “Read More” 😜
•
Raise your hand if you’ve been personally victimized your entire professional life with everyone advising you to read more 🙋🏼‍♀️ yup. Me too. Happy Monday everyone 😜

Happy National Osteopathic Medicine week!
•
I get asked if I experience stigma as a DO, and it’s a little funny. I WISH people always got my degree right, but if I had a dollar for every time my name was written with MD at the end.. •
I’ve kindly corrected my attendings (they have no clue), nurses, patients, admins, etc. Just recently I was at a conference and noticed a few DOs written in the program with MD after their name 🤷🏼‍♀️ it’s not about one degree being superior, or so different, but rather just getting it right!
•
With only ~10% of practicing physicians being DOs, and 25% of current Med students enrolled in osteopathic schools, we’ll continue to be a minority but more and more present with each graduating class. Proud of my degree and all the opportunities it’s afforded me. If you have any questions about osteopathic medicine drop them in the comments 🤗 Happy Friday!

Mykonos and Delos 🛥🤗
And now back to Athens for a bit before heading home. Seriously if you go to Mykonos I highly recommend making the trip to Delos if you have any interest in Greek history/archaeology — I learned so much! Rounding out a short but sweet trip with a little more history and relaxation. Can’t wait to come back already 🙏🏻

Cocktail of choice: iced espresso. It’s 7am somewhere 😎☕️

Loving Mykonos, and Delos was incredible! but it may take a little while before the sea legs are gone after that boat ride 😳
•
Happy Tuesday! (It’s Tuesday right??)
#mykonos #greece #coffee

It’s only been about 36 hours so far but this much is true: Athens is amazing, solo traveling is the best, and I’d like to eat nothing but stuffed grape leaves and varieties of eggplant dishes for the rest of my life 👌🏼

Diced cauliflower, shredded Brussels, carrots, cabbage all sautéed in avocado oil + @tessemaes green goddess, topped by a big slab salmon seasoned with @traderjoes EBTB.
•
A word on fish sourcing. While I try to buy wild caught as much as possible (mainly becuase it tastes better) I typically buy frozen and often times farm raised. To be honest I need to read more reliable information on different sourcing and how it affects health and the environment. If anyone has any good references regarding this let me know in the comments 🤗❤️

Happy Monday!!
#lunch #salmon #nourished

Me to me: “wow I’m missing a whole free weekend to be working in the hospital, why did I do this”
•
Me again: “well maybe if you would stop booking flights”
•
Also me: “K rude, but yeah I could really use the money”
•
Me one more time: “ please finish your notes”
•
In case anyone is wondering what moonlighting is like 🤦🏼‍♀️ •
