Wayfaring MD: Missionary Physician
Medicine isn't all doom and gloom, guts and gore. When you put random people together in situations that are often awkward, hilarity is bound to ensue.
I like to highlight the hilarious in medicine as I write about patients, medical school, residency, medical missions, and whatever else strikes my fancy. Oh yeah, and I like to use GIFs!
