“I do enjoy listening to this podcast and love listening to lifestyle medical content, but I felt very taken aback by the commentary on the “quitting residency” episode. Residency is an extremely arduous process and to call it “annoying” that a resident quit three months into their PGY-2 year is callous. It takes a lot of strength to make such an impactful decision that not only is difficult for the resident, but also the program. To even have a clickbait title of this is I’m sure extremely triggering for anyone who has made the tough decision to drop out of their programs. I how Miki would in the future refrain from making judgmental comments about this individual’s decision, when she herself has not been in a resident’s shoes personally. If anything, the resident dropping out during such a high-stakes time should be a reflection of how abusive the medical residency system is in the United States.”
