Hi all from Colorado...

  • Hi all from Colorado...

    I guess since I've been skulking around the back hallways of the site I should introduce myself. My name is Ron, I'm an ER Doc in Colorado. I'm married (25th Anniversary this past May .. Whooo Hooo), have a 19 y/o daughter in college and a 15 y/o son in high school.

    I went to undergrad at Colorado State University, medical school at University of Colorado Health Sciences Center and residency in Emergency Medicine at Denver General Hospital (now known as Denver Health Medical Center .. all hoidy-toidy now .. LOL).

    I was a late starter, age 30 when I started medical school. Had a varied past prior (some things have been sealed by the Federal Government; I can't talk about those .. LOL).

    I'd be happy to talk to anyone about my perspective on the whole medical school/residency/practice thing.

    I also dabble in computer programming, if you have programming questions I'll do my best to help out.

    Cheers!
    Ron

    Oh yay! It is someone from Matt and I's old stomping grounds (Denver, CO). Welcome!

    I am Crystal, and my hubby Matt attended med school at the HSC, and did his internship with Univ CO Hospitals, Int Med program. We are now in Seattle, WA, so he can finish his residency in Anesthesia.

    I am quite familiar with DG. I know it is DHMC, but it will always be DG to me. Matt spent 3/4 of his rotations in med school at DG, and had a couple of rotations there as an IM intern.

    Well, again, welcome to the board.

    (Sigh- I miss Colorado, as they don't have KBCO, Chipotle, Peter's Chinese, snow, and most of all bright clear sunny days in the winter {ok once in a blue moon} here in Seattle)

      Cheers!

          Oh, oh ... Dr. Ron ... while you are making rounds to yummy places in Denver, could you stop by Paris on the Platte and have a iced cafe mocha for me ... please??? Oh, and have some sushi at Sushi Den (if it still exists). I did my BS at School of Mines in Golden and I am actually a native of Colorado. I MISS IT SOOOOOOOOO MUCH. DH is an intern and we live spack dab in the middle of Texas ... but oh, one day, I pray to be back in Colorado (or Wyoming or Utah or Montana ... you get the idea).

          You know what I really miss ... The Tattered Cover bookstore ... gosh, I am a bit teary eyed ... sure hope you are enjoying Denver Dr. Ron

          I am going to go pull out pictures from the good ol' days

            Dr Ron,

            I KNOW my dh would like to ask you some about Emergency Med. That is what he thinks he would love to do. I'll have to get him on here to ask you. He started Med school kinda of later too, we are both 29. Anyway, glad you are here!

              Well...

              It's about time that you threw your intro into the ring

              Thanks for putting in all of the time and effort to help me sort out my mistakes :!:

                Kelly .. Thanks for the welcome and the kind words. Most of the work was done by Kris.. I just mopped up here and there.

                Aisha .. updating my 'visit list' and uploading a tissue or two to the middle of Texas.

                Jmom.. I'd be happy to talk to your dh. I like nothing more than the sound of my own voice (hee hee).

                Kris.. You've done all the hard work. I've just 'redirected' you a time or two.

                Thanks for all the welcomes, gang!

                Cheers!

                  Hi Dr. Ron,

                  First of all, thanks for all the work you've put into this place. Love it

                  I'm just amazed how you find the time between your "day" (er, rather "everyday" job) and this. Whew!

                  In any case, nice to finally "meet" you.

                    That's the mark of an ER Doc.. multitasking.

                    Cheers!
