What's next?
So it has been 4 years and I graduated from med school. It's been pretty surreal to be honest, because I never thought I can do it. It took me a decade do finally pursue this as I was so apprehensive mainly about the things that I would be doing in the future. Will I be a good doctor? Will I really cure the sick? Will I be an asset of healthcare? All these in mind and with determination and faith I managed to do it. But I know it doesn't end here, this is - as cliche as it sounds - just the beginning.
I can't really explain all those things that have happened from all those four years in this post, but all I can tell is how grateful I am for the opportunity to actually do it.
As our keynote speaker told us, "surround yourself with positive people" I truly felt that. I never have survived this alone even if I kinda did went through it all in my own terms. Especially on my 4th year where we were truly tested on our capabilities, it's been such a crazy ride and a life-changing experience. I mean being a nurse is an advantage, and growing up mature enough to understand all those crappy moments and instances faith kept me in tuned with the process.
Now what's next? Well there's the post graduate internship, and this time it's on a higher level of challenge and pressure. We are still at that stage where we are reeling from the euphoria of graduating but slowly we begin to feel another new wave of anxiety as we embark on a new journey in a different setting.
So, hustle. Yes, keep hustling.

Self-care is not selfish: It’s imperative to save the practice of medicine
Making yourself more empowered with Self care
Tumblr media
Self care in simple words it means to make out some time for your physical and mental well being.
When we talk about self care it is not limited only to the one who heals others such as medical professionals, physicians, dieticians, paediatrician, health trainers, workout trainers etc. Healing and helping others are the prime motive or commitments towards our profession. It took a pandemic to bring widespread national focus to this issue. The cultural shift is finally beginning. For the sustainability of the practice of medicine and for the health of all of us, it is time. We must continue to keep the spotlight on the importance of optimally caring for our healers even after this pandemic has passed.
Today, self-care is the new discipline which empowers us . It's what you do every day, every week, month in and out. It's taking care of yourself in such a way that doesn't require you to " indulge " in order to restore balance. Today, self-care is about making a commitment to stay healthy and balanced as a regular practice.
The rise of individualized self-care is the biggest wellness trend because "caring for myself is not self-indulgence", it is self-preservation, its prevention of physical and mental illness. It's a lifelong commitment, and comes with practice and perseverance.
According to Google, searches for self-care in 2018 were 25 per cent higher than in 2017. As we all are spending our more and more on our work. Defining our job roles, and functioning in a world full of gadgets, where our attention is at once demanded in several directions. Mental and psychological problems have gone up manifold as much as physical ones in the last few decades. We can't turn back the clock but we can look at our past time and gain some learning and experiences that how we can do development in coping mechanism.  
Self care is not selfish
Tumblr media
Self care is important and needed
Self care is crucial. It is certainly an important tool for us to keep in our back-pocket as we got throughout life, but with this we need all the tolls in our tool boxes. Same is in the process of self care; it is paired with things such as a strong support system, secured job or education and a happy / healthy living space. These are some of the things that will elevate the results of self care.
This was all about the importance of self care now why we needed that is also important. You maintain a healthy relationship with yourself, gives you satisfaction, strength, realize your worth. This makes us more productive towards our life.
Practicing self care
3MEDS medlife online pharmacy had brought some of the useful tips for practicing self care which will help you in knowing your self worth-
Learn to Nourish yourself: Satisfaction doesn't come from drifting through life fire-fighting emergencies and ticking off a 'to-do' list centered on other people's needs. It's not only the priority list of others involved in this process, but look into what gives you happiness whether it can be doing your favorite things.    
Don't say "yes" when you mean "no":  If you're constantly running around after everyone else, you're going to end up frazzled - and resentful. Learn to say no when you actually mean it. Always saying yes won't help you in healing yourself. Maintain a balance between your Yes and no.
Be Kind and Good to yourself : Talking to yourself is the best way to communicate about your thoughts and feelings to yourself. Similarly, talking to strangers or your enemy should also be in a polite manner. It's no wonder we're exhausted and find it hard to have any faith in our abilities. So, watch the tone of your self-talk.
Get Enough Sleep: An ideal sleep is of 7-8 hours each night. Get yourself comfortable and a sound sleep, just to energize your energies within you.
Maintain a Healthy diet: Add more veggies and fruits in your daily diet to remain healthy for long and also to minimize your visits to doctor. Cut that junk food from your routine.
Hydrate Yourself: Drink lots and lots of water to maintain the water level in your body and also to reduce and remove the intoxicants from your body which may be harmful for your body.  
Avoid Stress Triggers: Unplugging yourself from social media for a limited time period or for a few hours just to clear your mind. Making yourself unavailable for a few hours sit and relax.
Exercise: In your routine make exercise and yoga in your priority list. So, this will help in maintaining a body balance as well as mind balance with your life. Simple stretches, meditation, cycling, work just as well.
Go for your Hobby or Passion : In your daily routine work get some time for your hobbies to that will give you inner pleasure and satisfaction. Show your creativity in your hobby.
Personal Hygiene: When you're clean and well kept you feel great from inside. Keep yourself and your stuff always clean so that will add to some positive vibes in your body.  
Getting Social: Sometimes you need to hangout and chill out with your friends, a break from your daily work. Just to boost your energy levels.
Treat Yourself: Just take yourself for shopping, eating, riding, a movie, theaters, concerts etc wherever you feel like going. Whatever it is, treat yourself every now and then. 
Decreasing your Medical needs with Self care
Self care will definitely reduce the number of visits to doctors. People by taking care of themselves will help in skipping the doctor clinic. If we as an individual use the right resources to find out which self care should in include in my routine will prevent me from any kind of the illness. Less trips to doctors clinic should serve as just another reason to practice self-care. You are not that much late to grab this opportunity to take care of yourself. 
Ending
Self-care is a gift for ourselves and for those to whom we provide care. Once you have determined the steps you should take for yourself care start practicing. Sooner or later you will come across with the best results for yourself that you are having a healthy and happier life as compared to earlier. I know, keep on practicing self routine.

SEE: LIMA, PERU
Welp, here goes nothing! I am finally getting the chance to sit down and type the post I have been dying to write about for the past month. I am so excited to finally share my story with you all!
Back in May, I discovered an organization called MEDLIFE while searching through the many organizations we have available to us at my school, Oakland University. I was hoping to find an opportunity that would give me involvement and leadership. 
MEDLIFE- Medicine, Education, and Development for low income families. This description promptly fascinated me so I decided to do some research on the program. Basically, the organization holds these awesome trips that take place predominantly in South America and Africa to help communities who are underprivileged. I applied for the trip and was blessed with the opportunity to go! Here is a little bit of insight on what my experience with MEDLIFE was like.
DAY 1: Arrived in Lima. Lima is a huge district in Lima, Peru, filled with many smaller cities in it. We stayed in Miraflores, the wealthiest city within the district of Lima. It is a beautiful, vibrant place along the Pacific Ocean. The views on the drive to our hostel were unlike anything I have ever seen before.
Our hostel was not the worst, but it definitely was nothing like places I’ve stayed at before. The downsides were: wifi that only worked occasionally, so it was very hard to reach family and friends back home, and very small rooms with minimal space.
The first day we spent roaming Miraflores, shopping and forming a feel for our home for the week. The streets were clean and busy, the buildings were tall and the culture was captivating. After checking out a few shopping stands, and caffeinating with a much needed Starbucks run, we visited the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Apostle and Evangelist, which is a breathtaking, Roman Catholic cathedral built in 1535.
Tumblr media
From there, we went on to visit the one and only, Larcomar, an enormous shopping center and tourist site located right on the ocean. The mall is known to have every store you can imagine, as well as tons of fun places to eat and game.
Tumblr media
On the way back to our Hostel, we stopped in the Indian Market Miraflores, a vast marketplace, full of amazing Peruvian souvenirs and gifts. I loved everything, I honestly could not stop shopping. If I could go back right now, just for that market, I so would.
Tumblr media
So, Kennedy Park is a park honoring President John F. Kennedy. The park has street vendors and artists galore. But wait.... it gets better. The park is home to many residential cats. A park.. filled with popular paintings and street art, food, shopping, and well, cats... What could be better?! At night, the park is lively as ever, and still feels safe to shop and explore around. Not to mention, it is surrounded by a vast array of restaurants, cafes, shops, and about every other thing the capital of Peru could offer you. The sellers are so kind, and the products are one of a kind because you can’t find them anywhere else, yet all for a low cost. If you happen to come here after Peru wins a game of fútbol.... Well lets just say you’re in for a fun time.
Tumblr media
Eventually, the afternoon came to an end and we all wanted to get some rest from our long day of traveling. But that didn’t stop us for too long. Our next stop was near Kennedy Park, the so-called Calle de las Pizzas (Pizza Street), a whole street that in fact does include a couple of pizza places but that also turns into a party boulevard after the sunset. We ended our night at this incredible place, being lured in by deals on food and drinks from the restaurant workers outside! The atmosphere was extraordinary. I loved every minute of our time as a group here and of course, the pizza was bomb.
Tumblr media
DAY 2: Scheduled on the second day was our reality tour. The reality tour was meant to introduce us to the villages we were going to be volunteering at. It was remarkably eye-opening. The smell in the air from the garbage being burned was unbearable, the "houses” were shacks and the bus ride up to the top of these communities was scary nonetheless; but it made me appreciate life back at home. Stray dogs were everywhere and the difference from the city life to village life was very clear. 
What amazed me was when our tour guide brought us to the top of the mountain-like landfill. A climb over 200 steep stairs to see a wall that the villagers built. The people living in San Juan de Miraflores, the poor community, were paid by the rich who live on the other side to build it. The wall represents that the wealthy people do not want to contribute to any development; they choose to separate themselves from those who should be included in their community, and they choose to forget about the horrific mess happening on the other side. The wall reads “In Lima we adore the cement that pardons the memory.”
Tumblr media
DAYS 3 & 5: Clinic Days! Throughout the week we are assigned either clinic day or project day. Clinic means we will be setting up and working at mobile clinics in different areas. The clinics we run are: toothbrushing, hygiene, pharmacy, dental, doctor and triage. Throughout the week, I was given two assignments each day. Toothbrushing consisted of a line of super cute kids, waiting patiently to learn how to brush their teeth! They got to keep their toothbrush and were so excited to receive one. The mothers were extremely appreciative and although there was a language barrier, their gratitude was undoubtedly expressed. After toothbrushing, we applied fluoride to their teeth, and the kids would proceed to the hygiene station where they could wash their hands. 
Shadowing the doctors was another favorite of mine. The doctors had us take blood pressure and would explain to us the diagnosis for each patient so that we had something significant to take away with each one. I loved being able to see up close and personal how genuinely the doctors cared and how happy they were to be able to give them care. From this station, the patients would take their prescription and head over to pharmacy.
At pharmacy, patients would receive their prescriptions provided by MEDLIFE. This is something that is absolutely irreplaceable for a community like San Juan de Miraflores. Anything from tylenol, to vitamins, to ointments and insulin were provided to them. Though this seem to be short-term care, quick fixes, MEDLIFE works with patients and establishes a follow-up program; keeping track of their medical history to continue providing care and medicine for them each time the families return to the clinics. They also go to the homes of patients who are not stable or mobile enough to comethemselves, to deliver medicine and other necessities to them, such as milk or bread.
Dental... well, I’ve always asked myself who are these crazy people that sign up to work on teeth for their entire life!? But after working this station at the mobile clinics, it shed some light for me on why it is an interesting field. I worked with the dentist, taking notes and suctioning the saliva for them. Gross, but... surprisingly fun!
Tumblr media
Day 4: This day was project day. Our chapter’s project was to build two staircases for the citizenry in San Juan de Miraflores. Since they are living on what used to be landfills, the hills are extremely steep making it difficult for the residents to reach their homes. Not only is this construction important for their physical health, but staircases are also necessary in order for them to receive land titles from the city. Land titles are difficult to obtain without staircases because in the event of a natural disaster, such as an earth quake, legally the community needs a safe way to evacuate. A land title also provides an address, which then can give them legal electricity, plumbing and access to other important needs.
On my project day, our job was to bring large, tall, heavy blocks of wood up stairs (remember the 200 steep stairs I mentioned before.. yeah, that times 4!). The wood was being used to separate cement for the stairs our group was building the days before us, and it needed to be taken up another set of stairs. It was the hardest work I have ever done, to be honest, and afterwards we had a break and then spent the rest of the time painting the stairs we built. Though the work was demanding, I wouldn’t have had it any other way.
Day 5: Inauguration day: the day we commemorate the staircases. It started off working the mobile clinics, and afterwards we made our way back into the hills and celebrated. We had finished painting the staircases, the families decorated them in balloons, and after a few speeches of gratitude from both community members and group leaders, we broke a bottle of champagne at the ends of both the staircases, and were given pop and a meal cooked by the residents to celebrate. Everyone was smiling. I swear, the happiness and joy in the air could be felt from miles away. 
Tumblr media
Day 6: Our final day was bittersweet. Sad because our time was coming to an end, but also happy because the day was incredible. We left the hostel at 3 AM I believe, and headed to Ica, the capital of the Ica Region of Peru. Our adventure began four hours later, when we arrived in Paracas and started with a boat tour of the Islas Ballestas. The Ballestas Islands lie off the southern coast of Peru, near the city of Pisco. The uninhabited islands are home to sea lions, pelicans, and Humboldt penguins. On the way, we passed the Candelabra geoglyph, an enormous hillside etching of mysterious origins. It is a given you will fall in love with Peru.
Tumblr media
The next thrill of the day was located about an hour away: Huacachina, the desert oasis village in Ica, Peru. Our mission was to ultimately sandboard but the way up was somethin’ else. The dune buggies run across the high, rolling sand dunes surrounding the village and we made our way to the top of one, we got on our boards and went down the dune! On our stomachs.... HA! You thought my first time sandboarding would be my last? You thought wrong. The sand was awesome, and sliding down was fast and absolutely exhilarating. The climb back up was always a rough one, but BEYOND worth it once you were able to board again.
Tumblr media
My trip to Lima was the experience of a lifetime. It was inspiring, rewarding, exhilarating, and it pushed me to step out of my comfort zone, make friends, try new things and see new places. I hope to go back to Peru one day and visit Lima, and other regions of Peru too. I hope my MEDLIFE trip summary gave you some advice on what to expect if you’re interesed in going on a trip like this and I hope I helped you discover something you would also love to do.

Tips to Start Second Year Strong and Some Boards Info
Hey there everyone! I’m gonna do my best to start writing again, now that boards are over. I also wanted to just let everyone know the YouTube will be back up and running in no time but I had a tonsillectomy complicated by 4 trips back to the OR!!! As a result, my ability to speak is currently quite limited, but as that returns, so will the videos.
Let me start with a short preface. I am not going to post my boards scores but to give you some “benchmark” on why you would or wouldn't want to trust me, here’s this: This post is targeted at the students who want to break 230 comfortably, be above average etc. I cannot say that this is the advice that will get you above a 245... but that said, I'm sure some of this advice will still work for anyone. As for a COMLEX benchmark, I would say to you keep reading if you are interested in breaking 600 quite comfortably. Again, I’m not guaranteeing scores or flaunting mine, but I feel it would be helpful for you to have an idea of who is writing to you.
So without further ado, what do you need to know, to start second year strong?
1. Mental Health is key. I cannot stress this enough, the old adage you cannot take care of others without taking care of yourself has never been so true. additionally, if you are not in the right mindset for second year, you will not succeed. In my opinion, the best way to approach second year is a challenge that you are excited to tackle and grow from. The biggest “wall” in most students mind isn't the coursework, but the exam at the end of the year. You will start hearing students talk about how they “aren't doing class anymore” or “I just reading first aid” and to me that B.S. Your classes second year are incredibly high yield. They essentially contain the material you are going to see on boards. The more work you put in second year, the more you are going to get out. You need to keep that mindset because it is easy to fall into the trap of “oh I will just study for boards”. Please don't be that guy or gal, just study like you actually want to learn medicine and I promise the scores will follow. This leads me to #2.
2. Boards are not the MCAT, they are not a beast, they are not unfair. You will hear a ton of folks talking about how they are bad at standardized tests, they didn't do well on the MCAT, they don't think boards focus on real medicine, this list goes on. I truly believe all of the above don't matter. Let me first address the content issue. The content on boards IS medicine. It is again, B.S, when people say its irrelevant or its unnecessary information. Now, USMLE is more guilty of random useless detail than COMLEX, but the truth is at the end of the day, MOST of what you will see is normal medical questions. The detailed questions are there because everyone knows the basics, that is for you to show that you are above average because you have worked so hard to get to this point. 
Okay that aside, lets address the MCAT thingy. So there is this AAMC stat that gets tossed around all the time about MCAT score correlating to boards exams. The truth is, if you had life figured out and were a great student when you took the MCAT, then I’m sure that stat holds up. That said, I was not, and as you may recall, I had a 26 on my MCAT... This should have been roughly a low 200 on USMLE... I can confirm that I was no where near this. Don't let statistics define you, each time you take a test like this, it is a new experience and you define your future. Remember there are always statistical outliers... be that outlier!
3. Work Hard. Sounds silly right? Just don't forget what you are there to do. This is a long and grueling road, and you can easily lose focus for numerous reasons. Just remind yourself why you are in med school and what this means to you. That will be different for everyone but hopefully that will help you to dig deep and find what you need to push on. 
Alright, I think that should be sufficient to start you all off in the right mindset for your 2nd year. This applies to a good mindset for first year as well! Look out for the YouTube, I am planning videos talking about how best to utilize Step 1 with your coursework as well as how to get the most out of UWorld. 
Until next time,

As a doctor, there is always new evidence coming up which may change our clinical practice. It's impossible to keep up with all the information. So I always keep references handy such as UpToDate App and Medscape App. It's better be safe than keeping up with my ego which may lead to wrong management and compromise patient's outcome. . . . . . #yingzangel #bloggerpantaitimur #doctor #medicine #medical #nurse #health #hospital #doctors #healthcare #surgery #medstudent #internist #medschool #physician #medicalschool #medico #medicina #medicalstudent #rn #md #medlife #mbbs (at Kuantan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxQc1Oph5me/?igshid=12iqcdisv49ij

ET Catalyse: The role of brand communication during a lockdown
New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/et-catalyse-the-role-of-brand-communication-during-a-lockdown/
ET Catalyse: The role of brand communication during a lockdown
In the first episode, ET Catalyse host Deepak Ajwani ( Editor, ET Digital ) spoke to Meera Iyer, the chief marketing officer of Medlife, a leading online e-health platform that offers home-delivery of pharmaceutical products, diagnostics, and e-consultation. Iyer explained how as a marketer she dealt with communication challenges in these undertain times, identifying gaps that can lead to loss of consumer confidence.
youtube
“We realise there are two important stakeholders – the customers and our employees; right from the person on the ground delivering medicines and the one who is picking and packing them at the warehouses, to those in head offices and call centers, and the one working from home. Communication is key to ensur we set expectations right, remain transparent and show empathy to customers. This is crucial for us, as 85% of our customers have chronic conditions, and they need medicines just as much as they need food at this time.” Iyer remarked.
Speaking on the role of authentic and informative content, Meera said, “Digital is brilliant as it has destroyed information asymmetry. However, when it has its own issues when it comes to verification. At Medlife, we have launched ‘Medex Talks’ where we invite doctors for discussions and interviews and help our customers hear from these experts rather than random forwards that they may come across.”
Besides stressing on the need for work-life balance and keeping morale high in these trying times, Meera also spoke about balancing the role of a marketer with societal responsibility, “By ensuring that we are up and running, I’m taking care of my business also and I’m also doing social service. Social distancing is critical to stop the spread of coronavirus, and ordering online is possibly one of the best ways to ensure we remain safe. Secondly, we must take it upon ourselves to ensure that the right knowledge spreads and people don’t get bogged down by a lot of fake news and other bits and stay positive. ”

Top Sites To Buy Medicines Online In India
Top sites to buy medicines online
Today’s era is more prominently signified by people being super busy in  their lives that they tend to be dependent on other sources for every single reason. Websites like Big Basket, Grofers delivering fruits and vegetables delivered at the doorstep or apps like zomato, swiggy, food Panda providing quality food delivered at any hour of the day. This is no doubt helpful and saves time but it is also creating a major shift in the consumer preferences for shopping. Slowly the online way is gaining more popularity because all you have to do is just surf the internet and hardly within minutes more options than you desire appear in front of you to choose from, making the hassle of going shop to shop disappear in a jiffy. On top of that one gets the unlimited offers and discounts on the retail prices.
The trend of online shopping nowadays has moved to the medical space too. All medicines are available online without any difficulty and all you need to do is – upload the prescription and that eases the entire effort.
Top sites to buy medicines online in India: 
Here is my list of the top sites/apps which deliver medicines in one click at your doorstep. 
1. Medlife – No. 1 Online Pharmacy and Healthcare app
Headed by Tushar Kumar, medlife is the largest online pharmacy in India, having a customer base of over 5 million users for 100% genuine medicines that too at discounted prices. It provides a facility of cash on delivery making it even more convenient to use and it’s wider reach covers more than 25000+ pin codes covering majority of the important cities providing quality services. Apart from medicines,  medlife also has medlife labs which offer free collection of samples from the doorstep along with doctor consultation sitting at your home only.  One can also order healthcare and wellness products using medlife.
2. 1 mg – Online Medical Store & Healthcare App
1 mg is an all in one app for your various health needs from buying medicines to booking consultations and lab tests.  It is more like a pocket pharmacy where you can consult India’s best doctors with a single click only. This highly recognized app also provides regular health tips for your general well being.
3. Practo – Consult Doctors online and book medicines
Apart from ordering medicines practo is a handy app for finding doctors too. Practo helps in finding the most suitable doctor from a wide range of specialists ranging from dermatologist, Paediatricians, gynaecologists. You will find most of the doctors from top hospital chains like Fortis, Apollo etc here in this app.  Practo app arranges a private chat with the doctors and also one can call the doctors for one to one consultation. It makes doctor patient interaction much easier than the physical one because it’s easier to communicate with doctors through telephonic medium that too at feasible hours.
4. Netmeds App – India’s trusted online pharmacy app
Netmeds app makes ordering medicines online even more easier. Along with the doorstep delivery netmeds also offers money saving offers and has points to ensure savings on the purchases. It also offers free follow up check up with instant call/chat with specialist doctors. Reliable information related to almost all medicines is available at your fingertips. Order tracking being a significant feature helps in assisting the orders through this online pharmacy Netmeds.
I observed that there are many other online pharmacy websites that help us buy medicines with the help of your smart phone or computers in just one touch. Healthkart is also one of the very popular ones but I haven’t included that because it has more of health supplements and products available online than medicines. The names might be different but process is just one…
just upload the prescription
ask for consultation if required,
Make payment and you are good to go.
So the next time when you are too tired to go out and fetch meds for anyone, you know where to go. Just click on these pocket pharmacy apps.
Now that you know the top sites to buy medicines online in India, what are you waiting for?

Hello friends!
I’m back at my parents home, out of rotations due the quarantine, finishing my thesis and studying for the medical licensed exam. What are you guys studying at the moment?
I’ve been a lot more active on instagram so make sure to follow me there (same as the url)!
One thing that has helped me a lot with keeping me motivated and having productive study sessions is watching study with me videos (specially live streams!) Anyone with recommendations of youtube channels who do these type of videos?

First post of final year of med school! 🙊💫 
Can't believe it's already my last year! To be honest, there is still so much I have to learn, so much I don't know that I don't feel like this chapter is ending.
I'm on my third week of Psychiatry rotation and I've learnt so much already! Seeing patients really helps to retain all the information you studied previously and I am really happy at the moment.
Besides rotations, final year also means working on our master's thesis and I have procrastinated it a lot more than I originally planned. Today I decided to bring my laptop to the library and just GET STARTED. If you feel overwhelmed with a big task, break it down to smaller ones and get started on those, one day at a time. For me, starting has always been the hardest and once I get past that initial anxiety, it just gets easier.

I apologize for not being around, life is starting to get a little crazy!
I finished my Psychiatry rotation and I'm already in my second (and last) week of Plastic Surgery and I am loving it!! I have gone to the OR a lot and already had the chance to scrub in and assist on a couple of surgeries!! I absolutely loved it and while I still have a lot to learn, when it comes to all the rules in the OR, it has been a lot of fun!
So if you are having trouble studying or wondering if the hard work is worth it in the end, I'm telling you: it is!!!
