Ortho Rounds

One mustn’t deprive med bro of valuable patient care opportunities.

Why is Ortho so adorable? I wish him nothing but fulfillment and fun in all of his bone-healing endeavors.

[@DangerSquiggles]

I really love the fact that he keeps the clichees up a bit while still highlighting the skill and competence of ortho bros. Anyone who's ever needed them really appreciates what they do!

My dad taught me names of various bones as a pre-school aged child because it was his idea of important knowledge for a 3-4 year old. My dad was not an ortho bro, but I feel like it's something Ortho would do.

"Tibula". A word which has crossed all our lips. It's only fuction is triggering the roast centre in the brains of anatomy teachers.

every sentence in this skit is pure gold, including and especially the maximally efficient “👍”

I was with an ortho bro intern on my med school trauma surg rotation. Everyday he was so sad whenever the patient didn’t have bone problems. But mentioning a pelvic fracture would make his day. A golden retriever ortho bro.

Ha. I had a super random emergency surgery on my left arm done by an ortho bro. Should have been a simple 45 min procedure but took 3 hours. When I had my post surgical appointment my doc was so jazzed about it. Pulled out his cell phone and showed me pictures of the inside of my arm. He then thanked me. “Dude… thanks for the cool problem. I was stoked to have something out of the ordinary to work on!” Then he gave me a high-five.

When my spouse graduated from psychiatry residency, the group right ahead of them alphabetically was phys rehab/Ortho. It was really funny to watch the big, buff Ortho guys doing manly shoulder grabs with their attendings, followed by all the obvious nerds in psychiatry. Up until that point I thought Dr. G was exaggerating about Ortho bros. 🤣

[@alanhoffer597]

The funny thing is that ortho is an extremely competitive residency to get. Lots of residents were at the top of their class in medical school. No one know what happens between graduation and the start of residency but somehow they lose all their general medical knowledge. It is one of the great mysteries of the universe.

The mention of Med Bro micromanaging barely abnormal lab values - yep, felt that. Love ortho and his bros.

Oral legends of the triple point are being taught in dark rooms in med school in every country. Didn't know it was actually a quad point, thank you

[@nancykaminski8600]

The ortho bro who took care of my shoulder caught me sitting on his rolling exam stool caroming around the large exam room, pushing off each wall as I zoomed at it, while waiting for him. He gave me a thumbs up for using my time appropriately by doing something physical. No matter that I am 67…who can resist a Rollie stool?

This was epic. Not only do we have three characters simultaneously, but we have “the soft fleshy part that insulates the skeleton.” Pure art.

[@JonathanMichael]

I’m glad that the med student with a stethoscope wasn’t bringing up “danger squiggles” during ortho rounds. 😂

[@AllTheHappySquirrels]

"the soft fleshy parts that insulate the skeleton" 🤣

[@lawyerdoctor]

Med Bro reading pocket medicine backwards and gaining more information than reading it forwards.....Classic Med Bro!

[@josecordova32]

Med bro with two stethoscopes is such a flex!

[@iamkerok]

Still remember one of the orthopedists borrowing my stethoscope and asking: "Which end am I supposed to put in my mouth? " Always up for a joke is Ortho Bro.

[@john.john44]

Last year my mum was treated by an ortho bro. Funny guy. He checked in on my mum the next day.

[@woodysmith2681]

Ortho Bro is Ortho Bro, knows it, and is honest about it. "We're not good with stethoscopes and ophthalmologists aren't good with bone drills, so we don't use the others' tools" has never been said more eloquently.
