Vogue, vogue...strike a pose


Remember our small group session with the, ahem, chief resident? Well, it was held in a conference room on the cardiology floor. Not the wards, CCU or cath lab but the floor with all the doc’s offices. So, none of the noise and chaos, but instead leather chairs and lots of nice carpeted floors. Very ritzy.

Okay, but what’s so interesting about this you ask? Well, along the hallway coming into the department is a row of framed photos of ALL the cardiologists. But here’s the thing, these aren’t just regular pictures. They’re all posed, with some major photoshopping. Like glamour shots for docs. You know, the hazy romantic lighting, the serious half-smiles, and the dreamy gaze looking out at you in all their prettiness (at least more so than real life) and smartness. All this packaged into a knowing expression that calls at you saying:


"You can trust me with your heart. I’m a doctor, and I am THAT good.”


Real-life McDreamys? At our school? Who knew?
