Nisarg Bakshi DO Episode 2

Rotations

Our second episode with Nisarg Bakshi (now DO) OMS IV and cofounder of Rotations. We pick up where we left last week with Nisarg as he talks about moving on to begin his career as a pediatrician at Cook County Hospital in Chicago. What’s involved in a big move to a big city with an entirely different set of medical issues than most small parts of American face? Well Nisarg tells us. In addition, he talks about his strategy (or lack thereof) in picking a residency location (we think he just turned it into a chance to see friends and parts of the country where he could find good food). We discuss McDonalds in India and how India is dealing with COVID-19. Nisarg also discussed the cost of doing his interviews and also the challenges in dealing with all of this during the worst pandemic faced for 100 years. It’s a good interview and a time to catch up with one of Rotation’s co-founders. Finally, we get a commitment from him to get some serious interviews done up in Chicago after his first year is under his belt. So, listen along as Nisarg continues his journey toward being the best pediatrician on the planet…or at least in the top 5. We are seeing a decided emptiness of comments (good or bad) and you know that all you have to do is send them to TF Fredricks on Facebook or tweet them to @MedicalCinema (Fredricks) or @ProfPlow (Brian Plow) and if they are good ones we might even talk about them. Nisarg is lonely and would love to have twitter friends @NisargBakshi The email account is: [e-mail] But honestly we seldom check it.
