  • Hi from Bea in Philadelphia

    My name is Bea and I'm married to my high school sweetheart, J, who is a PGY-1 (soon to be PGY-2!!) surgery resident. We're in Philadelphia for 5 years while J's completing his general surgery residency. J wants to specialize so we'll see where that takes us after Philly. We're expecting our first child (a girl) in late June. I graduated from law school in May and I'm working at a small firm in Philly, mainly in environmental law.

    I am excited to "meet" new wives/significant others of doctors and medical students through this forum. Since I'm married to a doctor I'm committed to learning about how to have a successful medical marriage. In fact, I decided to start a blog on medical marriages, just so I can record things I've learned, books that have helped me, and advice that I've heard from others in the know. Through my blog I've met a group of wonderful medical spouses. It is an awesome support system and I'm sure this forum will be just as awesome. I'm so glad to have found it!

                    Welcome!

                    Glad you're here - sounds like you're off to a great start! If you haven't read it already, I highly recommend "Surviving Residency" by our own Kris Math. Essential reading!

                      Welcome!

                      Love the blog! I read Frank Boehm's column ALL THE TIME while we were in Nashville for residency. I'll have to get the book.

                          Welcome fellow attorney/soon to be mom/wife of general surgeon. I think I might know a little bit about where you are coming from. I look forward to getting to know you.

                            Hi Bea!! Glad you made it over here.

                            I didn't realize you knew the gender already! Yay for a little girl!
